Outlasting the Universe

Now and again we make a video that's a bit different from our usual stuff and here's one of them. A fictional narrative that weaves in scientific ideas of deep time and how intelligence might persist, challenging us to imagine what infinite life might truly be like. Thanks for watching. Written & presented by Prof. David Kipping. → Support our research: https://www.coolworldslab.com/support → Get merch: https://teespring.com/stores/cool-worlds-store → Check out our podcast: www.youtube.com/@CoolWorldsPodcast THANK-YOU to D.
