fire and ice


An animal that fascinates me is the glow worm. Really it is just a glowing worm so by itself they are not very impressive but in groups. They live in caves mostly and are becoming rarer and rarer but if you find a glow cave they are magnificent. All you can see is a tiny point of light and when many of them are gathered it can look like a galaxy. As to the earth ending in ice or fire it is not even a question the answer is fire. 5 billion years from now when the sun uses up its supply of hydrogen and it will turn into a red giant. It will then expand out wards and engulf everything in its path including the earth until it is just past the current day orbit of earth. Then it will be a white dwarf then a black dwarf and there will be no trace of the earth.
