Whoever is Reading this:
Your skin isn't a paper don't cut it
Your body isn't a book don't judge it
Your heart isn't a door don't lock it
Your life isn't a movie don't end it it
Your brain isn’t a computer don’t run it
You're beautiful
If a caterpillar can become a beautiful butterfly you can be more amazing and fly even higher in life

I want a TV series about this. I want a season for each stage:

- Season 1: The years before the event. The preparation; the social, political and economic implications. Is it kept secret? Is it openly discussed? Do people embark on end-of-world vacations and then commit suicide? Do people stop having kids years before and the economy collapses entirely years before the event? How people that will go into the bunkers is selected? The visuals: how does the star start to look bigger. As it gets closer, how does it light the night sky.

- Season 2: The fly-by. The lucky ones go into their underground cities. Are there riots of people trying to get in? Do some bunkers catastrophically fail because of the riots? Are there massive suicides? For how long do the people on the surface survive? The visuals: the star very prominently in the sky. Visible during daytime, casting double shadows. The different color of the skylight. Show-off the survival underground systems: power-plants, hydroponics, climate-control, etc.

- Season 3: The end of life on the surface. The depletion of energy and food sources on the surface. Chaos and turmoil first but as time goes by, the Earth gets colder, and people die, calmness and resignation. Or, is there some sort of order? Do people manage to handle the end of civilization in a calm manner? Are there still attempts of people trying to get into the bunkers? The visuals: The dimming shrinking sun, how it turns into just another star. How days grow darker and darker. The glaciers taking over the planet in familiar places (but please not just the cliche common places). The snow piling on. And then the oxygen and nitrogen snow piling on top of that. The fancy underground systems starting to work.

- Season 4: Total darkness. Many years later people got used to the new normal. Children born underground that never knew the Earth before. What's education like for them? What's the government like? What are the production systems? Is there a new budding economy? How does it work? What are the main productive activities? Food procurement? Maintenance of survival systems? Creation of new and improved survival systems? Is it a controlled society? How many centers are there? How are they connected among them? Is there travel between them? Is it underground, surface based or flying? How many languages survived? How much of flora and fauna did we save? Do we have a seed bank? Animal genetic material? Specimens? Did some of those die? Did we have to sacrifice human lives to save some animals? The visuals: Underground facilities; underground cities; underground society. The food industry. Energy industry. Surface exploration and surface resource harvesting. Installation of surface monitoring systems. Maybe the centers operate in isolation first, but then they start to exchange goods Maybe even civilian travel is possible? Creation of new surface rail or road systems for travel and freight? How are vehicles like for surface travel?

- Season 5: Earth has(n't) always been like this. Many generations later, the last person to remember how Earth was like when it had a Sun died long ago. Maybe no one thinks of Earth with a Sun as anything but history lessons, sort of what we feel about Roman society. Is Ice-Earth a bustling society living on a rogue planet? Is planetary travel a thing? or is it too wasteful to be considered and only admissible for the most important medical, security, survival purposes? Are there a lot of surface activities? Power generation? Manufacturing? Research? Are there permanent bases on the surface? Is it common to visit the surface or is it reserved for justifiable purposes? Do we perform excavations to rescue artifacts and/or human remains for history research? How is government like? Is it a general planet-wide government federated into regional administrations? Or are there independent regional powers? Are they at odds with each other? Or are we too few to be troubled with that non-sense? Is there maybe one un-federated sector? What's the economy like? Do we gravitate to a unregulated 21st-century-like society? Or given the resource-restrictions society is bound to be controlled forever? Do we allow ourselves to grow unrestricted or is there a strongly planned population control in place? I would like to see these topics treated with the humanity-lives-underground-with-limited-resources point of view, and not with some melodramatic-tint/21st-century-society kind of view. Do we have a place for the animals that survived? Do we have underground natural reserves? Or is it just too resource-expensive to consider? Do we have limited energy or is nuclear power more than enough for our needs? Do we have a 24-hour "daily" activity schedule and do we "make night" by cycling the lights? Or do we move past that and have a different cadence? People maybe have different schedules, each the one that works best for them. There's light always. Are we developed enough and automated enough that people can have non-productivity oriented professions? Or do we still need everyone to contribute in a mission critical activity? The visuals: Big cities underground, the different productive activities people work on. Surface activities, manufacturing, power generation. Observation stations. Transport between centers.

- Season 6: A new star. Eons later, humanity prepares to board a new star system. Did humanity develop some sort of planetary drive? Can we steer Earth into a new orbit around a star? Or do we have to travel to a not-so-far star with a habitable planet, that is also not really close. Does humanity split? Do some people remain on Ice-Earth and other go to the star-bound habitable planet. Do we still have plenty of nuclear fuel or are we close to deplete the resources of Earth? How is it like for humanity to adapt back-to surface life? Did we experience some genetic drift? At this point, are we mutated from the humans who first left the Sun behind? Were the mutations random or engineered? I don't want to see some crazy fantasy mutations here, but maybe more like mutations for disease resistance and maybe minor unintended visible changes. If we park the planet on a new star, do we park it far so as to not thaw the whole planet? Maybe there is an effort to slowly dig out old remains of the ancient solar civilization. Maybe travel for resources to other objects orbiting the star.

These could be books or movies, also. One for each stage, instead of TV series seasons.

This channel is one of the best to have ever existed.

Why isn't there a movie about what zas been described here? If executed well, it would be on a whole different level than The Day After Tomorrow. And since there are many events to cover, it could be an awesome trilogy. It shouldn't concentrate much on single characters though, since the storyline would expand over various lifetimes. But still managing to make the audience miss a character, which has just been living in another era of the whole story would be an achievement though.

I remember reading a short story called 'a pale of air' that mentioned this part. The survivors used to go down and scoop up buckets of frozen oxygen in pails and take them back to their (somehow, in spite of the lack of hermetic sealing) livable home, where they'd melt it over a fire.

@bentencho

45w↑5

IIRC, they had like 7+ layers of cloths turned into makeshift tents. Air and heat is constantly leaking out, but very slowly. Thus it was essential for the family to keep the fire going as that was the key to providing heat and melting the frozen oxygen they collect from outside.

@@richarddickiesharples848 On paper, the less centralized a political system is, the less corrupt it is. Socialism does work, however it operates at peak efficiency on a micro scale & is vulnerable in massive populations. Likewise, Capitalism is very efficient, but it often exhausts itself resulting in cycles of extreme delusion and turmoil.

I believe it's a balance & it varies with scale. The bigger your country, the less power the central government should get & the more power local governments should get. However, It's really hard to give a definite answer because there's so many different ways humans are able to exploit these systems.

If I were to try and sum it up idealistically, I'd say centralize information & decentralize power. Communist ideas can be compatible with a capitalist economy. We just are plagued with the endless task of trying to regulate thousands micro-economies within one big country.

But with all of that said, the "least corrupt" system is ANY system that was set in place under informed citizens who mutually consent with government & it's policies, and have the freedom to leave if they so choose.

I also remember weird symbols on the walls of the building like eclipses or black suns and or a cresent moon blocking out the sky. It felt eerie but oddly...calm? I really don't know.

I wonder if that rogue Earth could eventually be captured by another star's gravity and potentially create an orbit in the Goldilocks Zone, thereby reigniting life with whatever remains on the thawing Earth. Possibly using those extremophiles or any lingering bacteria as a starting point.

@Tjalve70

Extremely unlikely.
Remember Oumuamua? That was an interstellar object that entered our solar system. And it flew right back out again.
When an object, or a planet, is entering a solar system, they have enough kinetic energy to fly out again as well. The only way they can be captured by that solar system, is if they pass very close to a VERY heavy object, and they pass by it in such a way as to lose a considerable amount of energy. And even then they are extremely unlikely to enter into a safe orbit in the Goldilocks Zone. The only way for that to realistically happen, is if another star is passing through the solar system at the exact same time, and while in the empty Goldilocks Zone encounters the planet, and happens to give it a roughly circular orbit.
I would say that's so unlikely that I would consider it hard proof of a god.

So if this happened, and everything froze completely, and say got picked up by another star in the habitable zone, what would happen to all the dead bodies? Would all the bacteria responsible for decomposition die at absolute zero? And if so would there just be a bunch of bodies lying around forever?

@angrymokyuu9475

47w↑4

We've had something like this happen before: for a time, woody plants had nothing to break them down and eventually turned into coal and oil. Unless the earth froze solid to the core, geological activity would eventually result in those corpses being subsumed into the earth and undergoing some transformation(potentially into hydrocarbons, potentially not).
