with discovering the retrovirus believed to be the cause HIV/AIDS. Simultaneous research in France, by Dr. Luc Montagnier and Professor Francoise Barre-Sinousi, substantiated Dr. Gallo’s discovery. The retrovirus invades cells of the body’s immune system, incapacitating the immune response over time, eventually leaving the body defenseless against opportunistic infections (OIs).

Earth can be extrapolated based upon the estimated effects of several long-term influences. These include the chemistry at the Earth's surface, the rate of cooling of the planet's interior, the gravitational interactions with other objects in the Solar System, and a steady increase in the Sun's luminosity. An uncertain factor in this extrapolation is the ongoing influence of technology introduced by humans, such as geoengineering, which could cause significant changes to the planet. The current biotic
