As it is confirmed that NASA’s Voyager 1 probe has entered interstellar space, new evidence has come to light suggesting that initial predictions of its longevity may have been overstated. Scientists had claimed that the probe was very likely to continue into space for many billions of years and eventually outlive the death of the sun and the consequent destruction of life on earth becoming the only record of human existence. However, researchers in Kenya have unearthed previously overlooked ancient documents which seem to confirm that humanity will in fact outlive the current material universe. One of the documents, known as ‘2 P’ affirms the destruction of the universe though not in a slow heat death as some astrophysicists have predicted but through a singular cosmic event where even the elements themselves will disintegrate. Even more surprisingly, other documents in the collection state that this event will be “soon” and give evidence that humanity will still be in existence when the event occurs and will continue beyond the meltdown in a new universe. This news could come as a disappointment to some space scientists but is likely to be a major encouragement to many who are more interested in living a perfected universe with The Man than in the possibility of man’s long-lost existence being discovered from a gold disk by intelligent blobs in a 100 billion years time.

Couldn’t be possible
Thanks for interacting Mujtaba. Are you referring to the destruction of the universe and life in a restored universe or the prospect of Yoyager 1 being found by aliens? I guess probably the first one. It does sound unlikely I admit but then a lot of the theories in astrophysics also sound very bizarre – multiple universes, expansions, crunches. In terms of ‘possible’ it depends how you look at the universe – as a closed system without beginning or end, determined by natural laws (where did those laws come from?) – or as a creation upheld every second by a personal Trinitarian God. To ask it another way: What is the great narrative? Is it nothingness, then something, then nothing again. Or is it Loving Community to Creation to Fall to Salvation to New Creation enjoying Loving Community. For me, the big evidence of the coming destruction of the universe and the recreation of a new one in which man dwells with God is the historic death and resurrection of Jesus. That was the beginning of the end – a foretaste or microcosm or epicentre of the coming destruction and recreation of all things. What do you make of the empty tomb of Jesus?
