Scientists have determined when Earth will become uninhabitable

Scientists have come to a startling conclusion after studying how long life on Earth will last. According to an article published in the journal Nature Geoscience, Earth's oxygen reserves will gradually disappear, and after about 1,000,002,021 years, the planet will become completely uninhabitable.

Scientists from NASA and Japan's Toho University conducted 400,000 computer simulations to reach this conclusion. They analyzed the long-term evolution of the Earth's atmosphere and found that the depletion of oxygen occurs naturally, as a result of anomalous changes in the Sun.

Oxygen Apocalypse: What awaits the Earth?

According to research, the lack of oxygen on Earth is caused by the destruction of the ozone layer. As a result of this process, the oxygen in the atmosphere gradually evaporates and the environment necessary for life disappears.

Under such conditions, only anaerobic bacteria, that is, microorganisms that can live without oxygen, can survive. All living organisms that depend on oxygen will disappear.

Life may end much earlier

At the same time, scientists also emphasize that life on Earth may end much earlier, not in a thousand billion years. The reason is that global climate change, asteroid collisions, volcanic activity or other natural disasters can make the planet uninhabitable.

Scientists at the University of Bristol in the UK, using supercomputers, have predicted that the Earth could become completely unusable in 250 million years. They believe that this will happen due to global warming and major natural disasters.

Can technology help save life?

Scientists believe that the development of technology and scientific progress can help prevent or mitigate these threats. In the future, people may find ways to deal with space problems and even have the opportunity to move to other planets.

Thus, life on Earth will not last forever, but human civilization must find new solutions to ensure its future through scientific progress. Follow “Zamin” news on “Telegram”
