Horror books teachings.
Have any galaxies actually faded into darkness before? Considering our galaxy is basically the same age as the universe I find it hard to believe any galaxy has just run out of energy and gone dark.
I suppose you could interpret it as the galaxy leaving the observable universe, but that doesn’t have the same meaning to me.
Yes absolutely. A galaxy is considered ‘dead’ after it can no longer generate new stars. Here are a couple of articles:
Death of giant galaxies spreads from the core: https://esahubble.org/news/heic1508/
A galaxy that suddenly stopped forming new stars more than 13 billion years ago has been observed by astronomers: https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/astronomers-spot-oldest-dead-galaxy-yet-observed
Especially if your dreams are of Cthulhu rising from the sea.
Agreed.
Pretty bold to think Cthulhu even notices us, let alone gives a shit that he drives us to madness
