Prompt:when it just wouldn’t take off

I wonder, if it actually did take off when it just wouldn’t take off. What would have happened? Would everyone have been saved from this inevitable event. Well all I have to say is that if it is inevitable it would never be stopped, but it can still be delayed. Delayed for so long it might as well have never happened. Delayed for so long when it finally happens you will be older than some new solar systems planet’s ages combined to make a number so big, and your age will still be bigger. But what will happen in the future.
