Scroll down to traverse across 13.8 billion years of history, and into the unimaginably distant future.
Space and time explode into existence. The universe expands from an infinitely dense singularity.
Hydrogen gas clouds collapse under gravity to form hypermassive Population III stars.
Our Sun ignites. A protoplanetary disk coalesces to form Earth and the other planets.
Single-celled microbes (archaea and bacteria) appear in Earth's primordial oceans.
An asteroid impacts Earth, wiping out the non-avian dinosaurs and allowing mammals to thrive.
Anatomically modern humans evolve in Africa.
The Sun expands to swallow Mercury, Venus, and likely Earth. Life as we know it ceases locally.
The last star burns out. The universe goes completely dark, populated only by black holes, neutron stars, and brown dwarfs.
All black holes evaporate via Hawking radiation. Entropy is maximized. Nothing happens, forever.
