臺灣籍旅美老師今天交給我們的句子是:
And indeed, that's where we're headed: the universe is expanding and diluting, and eventually all the stars will burn out and black holes will evaporate and we'll be left with nothing but emptiness in every direction. At that point, time's arrow will have disappeared, and nothing like life or consciousness will be possible.
的確,這正是我們將面臨的狀況:宇宙正在擴張并削弱,最終所有的星星都會燃燒殆盡、黑洞也會消逝,而我們將變得一無所有,四方只剩下一片虛無。屆時,時間的指向已然消失,像生命或意識這類的東西也將不可能會存在了。
