I heard during nuclear chemistry class earlier this week that all matter will eventually decay to iron 56. I was going to post a new topic, but I suppose that this is what is being discussed here.
If time goes infinetly far into the past, is our present existence a reassuring fact?

All matter will decay into Iron 56? That seems unlikely, somehow. I know stars emit a fair number of particles... Hard to imagine how it could continually burn away every particle to iron. And then there are heavier, stable elements than iron. Eventually even Iron-56 decays away... theoretically... so I'm not sure what you mean here.

Eventually, the protons could decay away... http://en.wikipedia....ki/Proton_decay

Not sure if any one of you indiviuals think this way.
I am thinking there will be a Third Law Of Thermodynamics; "Law Of Decreased Entropy" or whatver suitable name.
Law Of Decreased Entropy:(Hopefully will created) The fact that matter especially Energy Matter(Electrons) was in such a state which allowed for the second law, there must be a way to revert from the second law to the third law going by the logical belief this Existence/Reality is a Continuum, notably Time and Space.
I guessing here, but that is what I see.
