Thank you. Continuously meaning generations? 40Million years? (Just to put this in complete perspective!) And for the record, do you know what solution the brightest minds have come up with so far for the long term? Breaking down the cores, transporting to underground, safer locations? Or just...

I imagine that there is a lot that is being reported to only the highest global authority that is making it harder for even the most educated of second guessing impossible.
