How long before Humans become extinct?

Evolution is undisputed scientific fact.

How can you know that?

I think we will too.
Humans are too arrogant and too greedy to share this planet with any other living things. We are forever dividing and conquering. A few more centuries and Mother Earth will shake us off for good. The world will thrive without us.

No such thing as an undisputed scientific fact, as our knowledge of the world around us increases, we begin to question previously held beliefs and ‘undisputed’ facts and theories.
I prefer to keep an open mind on such things.

Another disease will come about , and will wipe us all out , like the dinosaurs…….
It will take 1000s of years yet

Disease is probably the least likely to wipe the human race out. No matter the disease there are always people immune, sometimes that immunity comes at another cost (eg sickle cell) but some will always survive to pass on their immunity.

Disease needs a host if it is too “effective” and kills its host it also wipes itself out.

I agree, I can’t see a disease or virus wiping out the human race even if it was created by man like covid was.

Im talking human beings not robots

I was taught maths at school and watched Voyager’s launch in 1977

2024 take away 1977 equals 47 which is close enough to half a century for me though it has to be said that, according to Einstein, it won’t be as long for them

At least all that millions talk has gone out the window.

Indeed if it was heading in the right direction it would take 73,000 years to get there.

There are 2 confirmed and possibly a third planet orbiting Proxima Centuri ( there are probably more but we cant detect them). Do they contain life… no idea…

And neither does anybody else Rich. Matters concerning deep space are just anybodies best guess…
We are not equipped to travel that far, we need too many things to survive…Food, water, Oxygen, smartphone? and most of all Gravity or else your muscles will waste away and you will be no good to anybody when you get there.
