Day Without Fusion

The Day Without Fusion is Coming

One day its gonna happen. Weve even stuck it on our Google Calendar (tentatively busy June 15, 5,000,000,2008). On that date (give or take a few millennia), the sun will turn the last of the hydrogen in its core into helium, and voila. No more fusion. No more sunshine. Of course, at that point if the human race still exists and inhabits Earth, thatll be the least of our worries, what with adapting our new orbit and trying to outrun the leading edge of our now likely red giant sun. But now you have a funny shirt to wear should it happen (and if the human race still comes equipped with a standard package of a torso and two arms in their respective locations).

2A day without fusion is like a day without sunshine2 printed in orange and yellow beneath a happy sun on a 100% cotton charcoal grey t-shirt.
