Will new physics affect our Universe’s far future? We have a long-term story, based on our consensus cosmology, of how our Universe will end. But if dark matter interacts, the proton decays, or dark energy evolves, all bets are off. https://bigthink.com/starts-with-a-bang/new-physics-far-future/ #space #astro #physics #future

The easiest fix might be to append a "Go To Original" button the bottom of the "Description" when a link tag is present.

Reproduced.

Problem is the missing title. Normally we use the title as the link. Not sure yet how to handle this.

If the title is missing perhaps make one using the first few words of the description followed by an ellipsis?
