>Why bother to do that or anything at all? What is the end game?

People want to leave their mark on the universe.

There's some solace in thinking about how after everyone you know and your entire species is gone, something may come across traces of your existence and give thought to who was responsible for it.

It's the same reason people draw dicks on things.

Thanks for replying. You make a good point.

I'm referring more to when the Sun explodes and wipes out Earth or when universe goes cold, becomes inhabited by black holes, which will also be gone - a dead universe.
