Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • They speculated that parrots and other birds like it would still retain some human speech, and that for about a hundred and fifty years or so human voices would still be heard by parrots teaching each other the words they learned, even if only words and small phrases.
  • There was also the one where they discussed sheepdogs, and estimated that they would continue to protect their flock for many generations, thanks to all the human training and breeding.
  • The Queen's corgis actually have a decent chance of survival.
  • Bo living a long and happy life off the Chesapeake bay.
  • Cats will inherit the Earth! And they will be particularly fond of Manhattan skyscrapers, it seems.
  • Yet another one is where chimpanzees that escaped from the Kennedy Space Center learn how to farm pigeon eggs thanks to humans.
  • Dolphins passing legends of humans down through the generations, speaking in images, literally, about us in a very distant future.
    • So long and thanks for all the fish?
  • In one episode, it's speculated that the last remaining artifact of humankind could be the plaque left on the surface of the moon by the crew of Apollo 11. Thanks to the lack of atmosphere, the words "We came in peace for all mankind" could remain for millions of years.
  • The fact that our monuments to the world will still be standing at least a few centuries after we're gone.
    • Best estimates? The Hoover Dam will last for at least 10,000 years, while Mt. Rushmore could still be recognizable after 200,000. The Great Wall of China (which "ages likes mountains") will still be around for eons. And the Great Pyramids at Giza, swallowed up by the sand, might last for millions of years. Some of these will be around long enough to be seen by our successors (whoever that may be).
  • The Cassini spacecraft could land on Enceladus, thus giving life to another celestial body via microbes. If there's one impact we're leaving, it's giving life to Enceladus.
