This fact, paired with the fact that first it will become a red giant and completely destroy our little ball of dirt, is a serious problem when you're trying to come up with any sort of universal value for our lives. Eventually, every single thing human beings have ever done but we bathed in atomic fire for a billion years.

The only solution I could ultimately find was to stop thinking about the universe, just because something that matters to me as a human can't be explained by looking at alpha centurai doesn't mean it doesn't matter to me.
