Attempting to predict the end of the world is far from a new idea and is a process that has had absolutely no luck in finding a time frame or date. However, there is no need to start panicking.

A recent University of Bristol simulation provides a dire prediction for the far-off future of Earth. It is predicted that within 250 million years, the world will see extremely harsh conditions that ...

It's a creeping movement, but a momentous one. Some 200 million years ago, a single, extraordinary supercontinent called Pangea dominated Earth. Ultimately, landmasses ruptured and pulled apart, ...
