As we approach the end of Crash Course Astronomy, it’s time now to acknowledge that our Universe’s days are numbered. Stars will die out after a few trillion years, protons will decay and matter will dissolve after a thousand trillion trillion trillion years, black holes will evaporate after 10^92 years, and then all will be dark. But there is still hope that a new Universe will be born from it.Check out the Crash Course Astronomy solar system poster here: http://store.dftba.com/products/crashcourse-astronomy-posterIf you want to learn more about the creation and death of the universe, watch Crash Course Big History here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8dPuuaLjXtMczXZUmjb3mZSU1Roxnrey--Chapters:Introduction: The End of the Universe 00:00Scientific Notation 1:34The Five Ages of the Universe 2:20The Primordial Era 2:52The Stelliferous Era (You Are Here!) 3:05The Degenerate Era 4:48The Black Hole Era 7:42The Dark Era 9:39The Big Rip 10:20Other Possibilities: Multiverses & The Cosmic Reboot 11:52Review 14:10--PBS Digital Studios: http://youtube.com/pbsdigitalstudiosFollow Phil on Twitter: https://twitter.com/badastronomerWant to find Crash Course elsewhere on the internet?Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/YouTubeCrashCourseTwitter - http://www.twitter.com/TheCrashCourseTumblr - http://thecrashcourse.tumblr.com Support CrashCourse on Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/crashcourse--Hawking Radiation Mechanism resources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawking_radiationhttp://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/BlackHoles/hawking.htmlhttp://casa.colorado.edu/~ajsh/hawk.htmlhttp://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/154647/how-does-the-hawking-radiation-mechanism-cause-a-black-hole-to-lose-its-massPHOTOS/VIDEOSHubble ACS SWEEPS Field http://hubblesite.org/gallery/album/star/star_field/pr2011016b/ [credit: NASA, ESA, W.
