The very last photons from the surface of our star and the last particles that make up the solar wind

have started their final flight towards the Earth.

No one yet suspects that the heart of our solar system has stopped functioning.

沒有人會發現太陽系的太陽已經停止運作

8 to 9 minutes later and the sky suddenly turns black.

Darkness descends upon the entire planet.

No matter whether at the moment it's the deep dark of midnight

or a bright sunny noontime at your location,

月亮也看不見了，因為沒有太陽反射它

A moment before the onset of the all and shrouding darkness

太陽消失不久後，地球籠罩在黑暗之中

due to changes in the magnetic field around the Earth

is the complete and utter cessation of the process of photosynthesis

resulting in plants and cyanobacteria no longer producing oxygen.

造成植物以及藍菌門不再製造氧氣

This will soon lead to, how shall we say it,

After an hour, true panic reigns over the heretofore day times side of the earth.

一小時後，真正的恐慌將籠罩先前是白天面的地球

Power and communication outages propagate across the entire planet.

Temperatures everywhere drop by a several degrees

and the Earth surface begins to slowly cool.

But from the inside the planet is still heated by its molten core.

但地球中心的核心仍然持續加溫

24 hours in, dawn has not and will not arrive.

24 小時候，太陽沒有出現，且永遠不會出現

Panic and chaos are enveloping the entire world

State authorities have almost zero control over the situation.

Humankind is trying to figure out what the hell happened

人類嘗試了解到底是發生了甚麼事

while coping with massive power and water supply outages.

在對付大規模停電和水補給短缺時

The temperature on the surface falls  to between 5° to 7 °C

地球表面溫度下降至攝氏 5 到 7 度

and has now decreased by about 15° to 20 °C.

溫度現在下降了攝氏 15 到 20 度

Some species of plants and microorganisms  begin to die.

地球上一些品種的植物及微生物開始死亡

The inhabitants of the ocean for the time being

The average temperature on earth is now -17 °C.

地球現在的平均溫度是攝氏 -17 度

In areas where there are tectonic faults,

Most plants have already died due to cold or lack of light.

大部分植物因為寒冷的天氣及缺少陽光曝曬而死亡

Herbivorous and heat loving animals also begin to die.

草食性動物以及喜愛陽光曝曬的動物也開始死亡

In the oceans, phytoplanktons begin to die as well.

海洋中，浮游植物也會開始死亡

and the surface of the ocean is beginning to turn to ice.

By now, scientists and other individuals have realized

到了現在，科學家及其他人開始了解

what has happened and rushed to organize and equip shelters.

太陽停止運作了，急速組織並成立避難所

One month in and the Earth is continuing to cool.

And almost the entire planet is now coated with ice.

Virtually all plants and cyanobacteria have perished.

實際上，所有植物和藍菌門幾乎都死亡了

Some species of trees, especially conifers, are still alive.

一些樹種，尤其是松柏科植物，還沒消失

In fact, most of the earth living things have died.

事實上，地球上大多生物都已死亡

some bacteria still carry on with their normal  life activity.

is now found only near geothermal springs  and under water.

Interestingly, the layer of ice on the surface of the ocean

And in the areas of oceanic tectonic faults

and geothermal sources, the water is still warm.

和地熱來源的地方，水仍然是溫熱的

One year in and the surface of the Earth and the oceans

太陽消失一年後，地球陸地及海洋表面

According to professor David Stevenson at CalTech

根據美國加州理工學院教授 David Stevenson 述說

the temperature on the surface of the earth

should drop to about -40 °C and that's the same in Fahrenheit.

可能降到攝氏 -40 度，華氏溫度等同

Life endures now only deep in the earth oceans,

might be able to survive on the surface of the planet

in places like Iceland and other areas with large amounts of geothermal activity.

像是冰島或其他有大量地熱活動的地區生存

Professor Stevenson believes that the Earth

will continue to cool for another several thousand years.

Until the surface temperature reaches approximately -160 °C.

And let's not forget about the gravity of the Sun.

After all, it's unlikely that the Sun could suddenly go out

and other celestial bodies in their orbit
