- In the show Red Dwarf, Red Dwarf is a gigantic spaceship belonging to the Jupiter Mining Corporation. An on-board radiation leak kills everyone except for Dave Lister, who was in suspended animation at the time. Three million years later, Lister emerges from stasis as the last human being alive.
- In the documentary The Future is Wild, scientists believe that in 5,000,000 years time, the world will be in an ice age. The Mediterranean Sea will be a vast salt plane and the Amazon rainforest will be no more. Creatures of this land include huge killer birds, thin-legged pigs, sticky-frilled lizards and birds that act like whales.
- In the documentary The Future is Wild, scientists believe that in 100,000,000 years time, the world will be very hot due to excess volcanic activity. Antarctica will be a lush rainforest. Creatures of this world include enormous tortoises, amphibious octopuses, four-winged birds and rodent eating spiders. At this time, there is also only one species of mammal left, which is preyed upon by the spiders.
- In the documentary The Future is Wild, scientists believe that in 200,000,000 years time, the world will contain one global ocean and one continent, like Pangea. 100,000,000 years ago, there was a mass extinction and now the world is desert like, with a couple of rainforests around the edge. Creatures of this world include flying fish, giant plankton, various worms and intelligent, arboreal squid. There are no (aquatic) fish, no mammals, no birds, no reptiles and no amphibians.
- Approximately 5 billion years away from now: The year of The End of the World in the British science fiction television program Doctor Who. The date is given as 5.5/Apple/26 - implying that the explanation of 5 billion was an approximation.

Astronomical events
This section will list several rare astronomical events happening after the year 10000.
All dates are in a uniform time scale like Terrestrial Time. When converted to our ordinary solar time or Universal Time, which is decidedly non-uniform, via ΔT, the dates would be a few days earlier. Because of this difference, these dates have no anniversary relation to historical dates. Furthermore, they are only astronomical dates, so they are given in the astronomical format of Year Month Day.
