No one can say for certain. I think we will live for many many millions of years, evolving as we go along. Who knows what humans will look like in a million years from now, what evolutionary changes will happen along the way but I believe that a species we will survive on and continue living and find ways to have that existence continue for as long as we can. I dunno about whether that life will continue to remain on this earth as I do think that the resources of the planet will die out or get depleted in a few 100 years or so but we can always find new homes on other planets.
Within 500 years from now, although I think it will be earlier, we will have landed on and started to colonize an Earth like planet and perhaps more down the line. Humankind will move on from the earth, hopefully having learned some lessons on how not to ruin a planet, and I think realistically we will need atleast 2 to 3 planets or moons to be our new home base as the population is already huge now and will only keep growing. Perhaps 12 to 15 billion by then. Or possibly more and it’s better to spread those numbers on few planets/moons rather than cram everyone on one rock.
On these planets the humans will thrive and go on to explore and colonize even more planets and moon. We will survive and thrive and meet alien species. Not all of these species will be friendly but we will fight off the ones that want to kill us and make friends wherever we can. And hopefully long before this happens we do realize that humans can’t be divided and instead we need to have each other’s back and support every human so we have as much success as possible.
