Imagine that a brilliant but quirky scientist in the biology department manages to put you in a deep freeze and

you wake up in a million years. Which of the following statements about the sky you would see in that future

time is correct?

a. because of proper motion, a number of the familiar constellations will look somewhat different in a million years

b. all the stars we can see in the sky today will have died in a million years

c. if you could see them up close, almost all the stars in the sky today will have changed their color significantly in a million years

d. all the stars and constellations would look exactly the same as they do now

e. at the present time, astronomers do not know enough about the universe to say what the sky might be like in a million years
