As some of you know the sun is just basically a big star. And like all other stars a star must die or implode. When the sun implodes (it will someday) what will happen to the planets? The basic source of life is the suns energy no? Will the planets be destroyed with the explosion? Will the earth be an isolated cold planet?

Basically my qquestion is what will happen when Sun finally runs out of energy.

We all are going to die.

when the sun will explode, we already will be dead. The sun, before it explodes, will swell. It will swell so big that it wil reach the earth and even swallow the earth. But before we'll get swallowed by the sun, we already will be dead >>> the enourmous heat.

humanity is farked; that is if nature didn't **** us over already

Humanity will have killed off each other way befor the sun is even close to blowing up.

the sun's mass is too small to go supernova.

when it starts exhausting its supply of hydrogen, it'll expand into a red giant, engulfing mercury and venus, possibly earth as well. it'll then become a white dwarf.

This is the lifecycle of a star, there are 3 ways;



In Earth's case, it will probably get burned when the sun will reach the status of red giant.
If not, it will take another xxx years (alot) for the sun to transform into a black dwarf. The warmth is gone, life on earth will die.

But don't fear, you won't see that happening

Guys don't worry, the sun has still 5,5 billion years to go.

we're safe.

the lizard people won't be safe, will somebody please think of the lizard ppl =(

Think of the turtles they will have to suffer the heat

by that time even the turtles have warp-drived-spaceships

by that time, if we are still alive we would probably have left for a different planet allready.

You're all gonna die!!! MUAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHA

rofl planet, i think an entire new galaxy.

By the time the sun goes boom we will be able to move the earth out of harm with an alternate light/heat source.

why would we? if we could visit a better planet, with even better envirements.

Off to Uranus!

We'd still die ffs...

every living things=dead

I went to the sun yesterday to see my homie jesus, and when I got there, there was a sign that said "sorry for the inconvenience - Galaxy"

Turns out the sun already blew up a few thousand years ago, we're gonna die pretty soon.

Fixed

LIES!!!!!!!!


Chuck Norris will roundhouse kick the sun which will stop the sun form exploding. Then Chuck Norris will come back and destroy humanity by punching everyone with his third arm.

Ice Age and then death xD

This is along the same lines as the tree in the forest question. (If a tree falls in a forest but no one was there to witness it, did it fall?)

If we arent going to be around to see the other planets get swolloed by the fireball (that will most like engulf everything to Saturn or beyond), who cares?. That is if the sun blows up. If it just goes out we wont know for 8 minutes and eventually everything will freeze. Life on the surface will be nonexistant. Perhaps cold blooded animals will survive(but then again the oceans will be huge icecubes so prolly not).

Thats about what I understand from Bio, Chem and Physics in HS.

Yeah i read how the materials on earth r in the universe so that possibility of life forms being created in a couple xx million billion years are already in progress, and by life forms i mean a shape not just micro stuff cuz they exist already

so odd how where the results of billlions trillions if not more of work
so sad we become what we have

We wont die.. no no no..

We'd will looking like a couple of albino's because there will just be our moon and night.

earth is not far from the sun, so we might get involved in the blast and destory the planet OR

black hole forms after a star dies well so we get sucked in black hole lol

my opinion



planet will literary freeze with out the sun



+1 , and we dont even need to worry lol the suns not gona explode till a couple trillion years from now, so were gona complete our life cycle

Considering thats like billions of years into the future, I'd think man is either already wiped out, or developed the tech to fly to different systems and colonize them. Battlestar Galactica anyone?

the moon doesn't make light, the light of the moon is actually the reflection of the sun on the surface on the moon....
