  B) The total amount of gas will be much greater, since many stars will undergo supernovae between now and then.
  C) The total amount of gas will be much less than it is today.
  D) Thanks to the recycling of the star-gas-star cycle, the interstellar medium should look about the same in 50 billion years as it does today.
