Isaac Asimov, prolific science fiction author, said his favorite story he ever wrote was The Last Question.
What is the last question? It's about Entropy and how based on what science tells us the Universe as we know it will one day run out of energy. We know this because the stars that power our Universe will all, eventually, burn out.
What will Mankind do then?
This is a superb story about Asimov's vision of cosmology and it takes less than 15 minutes to read. It also has one of the best endings of all time.
