I'm afraid it won't explode now.
It won't go and explode as a nova or super-nova unless something real bad happens and it gets a denser core.
Our star won't explode until at least 5 billion years time, unless anything makes it do it.
The term nova means very large explosion. But our star won't explode it will widen with a little explosive force and all of it's gaseous surface and mid layers will blow off.
Our star is an M class (G Medium class) a super-nova will only happen with L class stars (O Large class) + (M Small class) the M and S class have novas only when they collide it is likely to be explosive as the stars are young and hot.
The main course of nuclear fusion is:
D+T=4He+1n or 3-2H+2-1H=4He-3.5MeV+1n-14.1/14.2MeV
The sun will not explode in at least 1 billion to 5 billion years!

The Sun does not contain enough mass to go nova, however it will become a Red Giant in about 5 billon years or so.

You can hide wherever you'd like. Unfortunately, it would'nt do any good. WHEN (not if) the sun goes nova, it's diameter will come close to Earth's orbit. When this happens, earth will be all but vaporized, and all life on it will be destroyed. The good news is that this won't happen for another several BILLION years. Don't make plans to move to Neptune, we're gonna be fine.

Our sun will not go nova. And if it did there would be no place to hide.

To hide from the sun explosion either hide in the bathroom or hide in the shade of something as sun rays will not effect you in the shade.

This is a two part question: 1) No, it's not. 2) If it did, there would be nowhere to hide except with the Almighty.

You are sooooooooooooooo dumb if you belive that. Hypothetically, the entire planet would be swallowed by the 7000 Kelvin+ flames, so no hiding spots

Seal your house with duct tape. If it can protect you against nuclear, chemical and biological attacks, i'm sure it's good for super novas too.
