According to current science, yes.
When the sun begins to die it will turn into a "red giant" which will swallow mercury and venus and be way to close to earth for any life to survive on it.

Before the Sun dies out the Earth will be swollowed by the Sun along with the other inner planets. That will happen when the Sun turns into a red giant.

I believe so. The sun is classified as a G size star. That means that 10 billion years from now, when the sun goes super nova, it'll expand out all the way out to saturn. Then suddenly shrink and blow up and become a white dwarf star. All life will die on earth and the earth will basically be a ball of rock. Sadly, that's the grimm future... but I wont' be around for it. Hope this answered your question.

Yes, that's what's expected to happen in about 4.5-billion years. Mercury, Venus and probably Earth will be consumed as the sun goes into its red-giant phase. The sun will NOT explode, as some around here say it will. It would need at least 1.5 times more mass before that could happen.

Yes. When the suns fuel runs out, it will expand into a red giant and all of the inner planets will be absorbed by the sun.
This is billions of years from now, so don't worry about it.

actual, the earth water will straight away evaporate and the ambience will get away into area long in the previous the sunlight dies. The sunlight will improve in length and the Earth will warmth up countless billion years from now. Many lifeforms properly be extinguished. as a results of fact the sunlight evolves in the direction of a purple widespread, the Earth will replace into dry, barren and airless. ultimately, the sunlight will fill lots of the sky, and could engulf the Earth and perhaps Mars.

I always thought about that. My science teacher said that itll take about the next billion years for that to happend. Since the sun is made out of gases that can be found on earth then I would think that our technology would be advanced enough to create our own sun!

At first sun will turn to a red giant and eat Mercury and Venus and come near Earth . if you pay attention to Einstein Theory you understand that Earth moves to another part of the world because the gravity that causes this solar sysem is destroy .

First, the planets will get burned to cinders with the coronal discharcharge, then they will freeze to little iceballs.
Since the mass of the sun will likely decrease after this, the planets will eventually be flung out of their orbits into deep space.
