Listen To This!



Did you know that, in the future, the black holes at the center of all galaxies will consume every star that orbits them? Eventually, our universe will be composed of nothing but ever-expanding black holes separated by an ever-expanding void of empty space. The red-light remains of this barren universe and near total lack of matter will theoretically slow down time, so that the already infinite stretch of this period in our universe's history will retard and seem to take infinitely longer.
They don't even have names for the numbers of years we're talking about.
But, as with all things, that time will pass.
The black holes will converge.
All things will be absorbed.
Our universe will be an endless expanse of blackness, any and all light being drawn toward an insatiable super-massive center. Everywhere will be the event horizon, and time will stop.
Whoops!
Gotta run, can't be late for class...
