Life span should probably be reserved for things which have life - living things.

It is only by analogy that we consider the life of the universe, the Sun, the half life of radionuclides, the Plate Tectonic cycle, and so on.

In manufacturing we may consider the product life cycle, or the expected life of a product such as a cellphone, but these again are only by analogy.
