From the Sumerian epic of Gilgamesh to Norse prophecies of Ragnarok to the Revelations of Saint John to Cormac McCarthy's The Road , and any number of fictional zombie Armageddons and the dystopic world of The Hunger Games , we have always wondered what will happen after the world as we know it ends.
