The Epochalypse, or Y2K38, will occur on January 19th, 2038 at 3:14:07 UTC. This is when the UNIX timestamp stored as a 32-bit signed integer will run out of space. Above, you can see the binary representation of the UNIX timestamp and when it will flip. After it flips, all computers that still use a 32-bit signed integer to store the timestamp will get sent back in time.
