Can anything last forever?

This week, we tackle one of the biggest questions that has
puzzled scientists and philosophers for centuries – the concept
of ‘forever’.


First, we look to the future where advances in science could give
the species we thought lost forever a second chance at life and
wonder what the archaeologists of the future (human or otherwise)
will learn about our civilisation from the items we leave behind.
Will plastic be humanity's lasting legacy on this planet and what
will happen to Earth’s great cities once we are no more?


Finally, we attempt to find the edge of the universe and ask if
it too has an ending. While occasionally overwhelming and
uncertain, our future near and far is impossibly intriguing.
