The article outlines Flammarion’s view that Earth will die naturally as its elements drain and the sun fades. Climate shifts, oceanic and atmospheric absorption, and a final global freezing move humanity toward the equator as cities vanish beneath an eternal snow. The map of the world will transform and life ends in a cold, barren solar tomb.
