When I was 6 or 7 years old, I distinctly remember seeing many stars in the sky but never gave it a second look as I thought it would always be there. Looking up at the sky today I see nothing. At first it was disappointing but it got me thinking. Where did the stars go?
And so like every human being in this planet, curiosity drove me to google and made me type the tittle of this blog. What google told me was a whole lot of Science which was interesting but is there more to what I read? The "Light pollution" in larger cities is a factor to be considered and it might be also true. Another explanation said that if our eyes are present in darkness for a long period of time, they get used to the darkness allowing us to view a lot more stars than before barring that there is no light pollution. So these are the genuine explanations that are all correct but let us look into the future of what could be more causes of stars disappearing?
Space (the entity if you could call it) is expanding. The speed of this expansion is constantly increasing. Space around the Earth is also continuously expanding. Doesn't this mean that emptiness is coming in between the stars in the universe and our planet? So in the future this could also be an added explanation as to why the stars are disappearing from the sky because the stars would have literally disappeared. The comments section is open for your opinions on the subject.
