The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Heat death does not imply any particular absolute temperature, it only requires that temperature differences or other processes may no longer be exploited to perform work.
- In the language of physics, this is when the universe reaches thermodynamic equilibrium.
- If the curvature of the universe is hyperbolic or flat, or if dark energy is a positive cosmological constant, the universe will continue expanding forever, and a heat death is expected to occur, with the universe cooling to approach equilibrium at a very low temperature after a long time period.
Why it is Rare
