Some day far in the future the universe will have expanded so much that an alien race reaching human levels of intelligence will no longer be able to see any of it. It will be too far away ever to detect, no matter how great the genius of the race in question. They can only ever know so much about the origins of the universe and themselves. And then, the information just runs out.
And so, the destiny of the universe - inevitably and unavoidably - is ignorance. A big, black, dark, cold place full of ignorance. Which is probably as depressing a thing as you could ever know.

Im sure the United Loon Alliance will hold a protest against the Asteroid!!!!
When i think of the people who vote for SF/IRA, i think of Germany in 1933.
