NASA backs Hawking's prediction of earth's end, urges urgent climate action

Story by JERUSALEM POST STAFF
• 10h •

NASA has recently backed Stephen Hawking's assertion about the urgency to act against the climate crisis and other threats, emphasizing the need for environmental responsibility and sustainable technologies.

Stephen Hawking is remembered as one of the greatest scientists in history, famous throughout his life for his invaluable contributions to the knowledge currently held about physics, astronomy, and other topics. For decades, he had been urging that humans begin the process of permanent colonization of other planets. Hawking highlighted an inescapable responsibility to protect the planet to prevent its deterioration and ensure human survival.

In a presentation at the Tencent Web Summit in Beijing, Stephen Hawking gave humanity less than 600 years before needing to leave Earth, approximately by the year 2600, due to climate change and resource depletion. He estimated that humanity could last until the year 2600 on Earth before it becomes a "gigantic ball of fire" due to global warming and climate change. Hawking stated, "We are running out of space, and the only places we can go are other worlds. It's time to explore other solar systems. Expanding may be the only thing that saves us from ourselves. I am convinced that humans need to leave Earth."
