I have my custom chapter based in the Galactic Core.

Lots of solar radiation and gravity wells. Planets float in space between stars and yet get enough radiation to sustain life.

Last i heard.

It was theorized that the center of the Milky Way Galaxy is a Super Massive Black Hole
imagine punting the tyranid invasion into it? that would end their noming spree real quick!

Yeah, I think that's closer. Humans will not exist when it happens, you can be sure of it.

I doubt anything will change in 40 thousand years.

Considering SO MUCH has changed in our last 40,000 years I see no reason not to expect massive changes moving forward as well.

Some people are so unnecessarily pessimistic about our species, despite what many like to think we're actually experiencing the most peaceful period of our species and for some areas of the world the most prosperous(even during the recession, in comparison). I foresee it continuing, slowly, to get better and better.

Fun fact: Since WWII there has been only 28 days in which there was no war anywhere on the planet.

Yes, wars that hide in shame compared to the wars of the past.

It isn't exactly theory any more; the object in question is called Sagittarius A* and astronomers have all the evidence (short of actually looking at it), that is indeed a supermassive black hole.
