      That’s a very hard question! I don’t think anyone knows for sure what will happen to our universe, or when. Scientists think that the earth may be destroyed in many billions of years from now (so nothing to worry about!), but even then, there will be loads of other galaxies that continue to exist. There is much more out there than just us!

      I watched on CNN that astronomers think that the earth will be consumed by the Sun and all the planets will cease to exist leading to the galaxy fading away, but this will happen in billions of years to come.
