Likely, "Heat Death" (thermodynamic equilibrium, maximum entropy) is the fate of the cosmos. Wikipedia says: << [[the Sun spews]] 4.26 million metric tons per second, for 384.6 yotta watts (3.846×10^26 W), or 9.192×10^10 megatons of TNT per second. >> > > The known Universe is cooling and the distances > > between the galaxies is growing exponentionally; > > i.e. gravitational exergy is being consumed away. > > Gravitational potential energy increases as masses are separated. As mass dissipates, gravity itself is consumed away; eventually, there'll be relatively none left.
