Scientific breakthroughs often reveal not only current truths but also glimpses into Earth’s future. A recent study, funded by a municipality linked to the University of Bristol, used a supercomputer to explore the planet’s fate through vast geological and atmospheric data.

Researchers focused on tectonic plate movement, predicting that Earth’s continents will eventually merge into a supercontinent called Pangea Ultima. This formation could trigger extreme heat due to three combined factors: intense continentality, a hotter sun, and elevated CO₂ levels.

Dr. Alexander Farnsworth warned that temperatures could regularly exceed 40–50°C, with high humidity making survival for mammals difficult. Only a small portion—about one-eighth to one-tenth—of the land might remain habitable, but conditions would be hazardous due to volcanic activity and climate extremes.

Despite the dire outlook, there’s hope. These events are projected to occur in 250 million years, giving humanity significant time to adapt and prepare.
