The Universe isn’t always kind to life, there are countless ways in which Earth could be destroyed tomorrow, but some are more likely than others... Some of the key animations about False Vacuum Decay were taken from this Kurgesagt video, if you want to learn more about the topic I would definitely recommend checking the video (and their channel) out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijFm6DxNVyI My friend Dr Sara Webb has a great book on this exact topic, you can check it out here: http://bit.ly/3YOfkV2.
