The universe is dying. When scientists examined the light coming from 200,000 galaxies, they felt that the celestial bodies are releasing just half as much as they were doing two billion years ago.

There is death for the earth tomorrow---and it is haunting us, according to Universe Today.

Studying the death of the universe is important to understand the function and role of galaxies, feel the scientists.

"Of course the universe is dying," said Sean Carroll, an astrophysicist at the California Institute of Technology, adding that it's "something we've known since at least the 1920s."

However, in this generation or life we will not be able to see death. "We still have at least two trillion years until the last sun is born, and even after that the smallest stars will continue to burn for another 100 trillion years," according to HNGN.

Looking at the other side, you could say that the sun has a shorter life----just about 5 billion years. It will "release its atmosphere and scald the Earth" even as the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies crash in the galactic fields.

What happens after that is strange. Just "white dwarves, some black dwarves, neutron stars and lots of black holes" will be left to savour space.

However, do not fret---yet. It is all a long way off.
