The end of the world

Professor Chris Lintott (Astrophysicist)

We’ve got bad news about the Universe - it’s well past its best. Life on Earth has only a billion years or so to go, more stars are dying than are being born and the very distant future isn’t looking too rosy either. Astrophysicist Chris Lintott (BBC Sky at Night) looks into his crystal ball and explains what we do and don’t know about the next twenty billion years or so, searching for hope in the latest cosmological theories.
