Once, an astronaut named Ethan was part of a mission to explore the edge of the universe. After years of travelling through space, Ethan and his team finally reached their destination and found that the universe was coming to an end.

Ethan was filled with mixed emotions as the team watched the stars slowly fade away. He felt sadness for the loss of all the wonders of the universe but also a sense of wonder at being one of the few to witness the end.

Days passed, and Ethan was the only survivor of his team. He was left floating in his spacecraft, surrounded by darkness and silence. Yet, he was not alone in his thoughts.

Ethan couldn’t help but reflect on the journey that brought him to this point and the meaning of it all. He thought about his past and the decisions that led him to become an astronaut, his family and friends back on Earth, and the future that would never be.

But, most of all, Ethan pondered the mysteries of the universe. He considered the infinite possibilities that lay beyond the boundaries of what they once knew and the idea that maybe, just maybe, there was something beyond even this.

As Ethan drifted further into the void, his thoughts became his only companion. Concepts faded, countries faded, opinions faded, facts faded, and the sense of separation from anything in front of him faded. He felt a sense of peace knowing that his legacy would be the knowledge he gained and the questions he asked.

And with that, Ethan was content to let the darkness envelop him, and his mind was lost in the endless possibilities of what may have come before and what may come next. Ethan’s spirit of exploration and wonder lived on even at the end of the universe.
