does anyone know if the sun will really explode?

Question

im really REALLY interested in astromony. & this is a topic i LOVE 2 discuss though I'm not sure if its really going to happen. Some of u probably dont know, it's left to the professional scientists to ask but your opinions about it would help!

Answer 1

Our star, the Sun (Sol), is a G-2 class star. Eventually it will deplete its hydrogen (H), converting into a helium (He) cooler burning star. When this occurs it will be a cosmocataclysmic and extinction level event as far as the Earth is concerned, for the Sun will hyperdialate 100 times its mass into a Red Giant Star, engulfing the orbit of the Earth. This event will generate a spontaneous stellar radiation burst, frying half of each planet, and generating a powerful shock wave causing atmospheric violence and may even dislodge planets out of their orbits to realign in new orbits around the Red Giant. Hence, because the orbits of the planets are not stationary, the Earth most likely will survive when the initial shock wave hits our planet, perturbing its orbit away from the expanding stellar mass, but still it will precipitate an extinction level event that will lay down a new Carboniferous Layer to the Geological Column.

Next, after about one million years our Red Giant will deplete its helium, and due to its enormous mass gravity will cause the star to collapse, thus “crunching” and compressing its internal molecular structure into a White Dwarf Star, while it simultaneously explodes its outer shell, the photosphere, in a sudden catastrophic multi-shock wave event called a “Nebula Discontinuity Event”, or merely a “Nebula”. This will simultaneously create a Local Compression Bubble around our region of the Galaxy. Only larger Red Supergiants, not smaller Red Giants, undergo a supernova event and become Neutron Stars or Black Holes. The new White Dwarf will have the mass equal to the size of the Earth, yet it will retain the electromagnetic field of its original G-2 class star phase. The nebula event will most likely incinerate the planets with X-ray radiation causing sterilization on Earth, generating another extinction level event. The shock waves will concentrically disperse the planets outwardly from the smaller cool burning White Dwarf, and Earth will become a dead frozen planet.

Answer 2

No, the Sun will not explode. In about 4-5 billion years time, as the Sun runs out of fuel, it was expand to an enormous size which will engulf the orbits of Mercury and Venus and possibly Earth. It will then puff off it's outer layers until only the core remains and leave behind a white dwarf.

Answer 3

well, some people and sciencetist have differerent opions, mine is that you dont have to worry about that but your greatgreatgreatgreatgreat etc. grand children will have to,, billions maybe evn trillions of years ago, the sun might explode or actually some say that earth from either pollutin global warming or some other diaster in action will cause the earth to explode or either dry out into a huge masive pile of juyst... waste or sand..!

so yes the sun MIGHT explode but you reallt dont have to wory about it there are i bet alot of other earths outt there because the universe has endleess amounts of stars and plants that anything could live on, and if theres no other earth out there or marshena or alein things, then i sure is an awfull waste space !! am i right or right!! ;-)
well become an astronomer and work for NASA!! haha im very interested in astronomy too email at [e-mail] we can chat about science. well since your so 9interested in stuff like that then you should really check out the movie CONTACT it is all about that stuff. its my akl time favorite movie, rent it some tim.

Answer 4

No, the sun won't ever explode. For that ever to happen the sun would have to be at least 1.5 times more massive than it is. What WILL happen in about 4-billion years is the sun will go through an era of swelling and shrinking as it runs out of hydrogen fuel and "burns" other elements. Finally, when its fuel is completely gone, the sun will dwindle away to what's called a "white dwarf" star, about the same size of Earth.

Answer 5

The sun is not large enough to explode.

When its nuclear fuel in its core runs out it will continue to collapse. This will heat the core up and the outer layers will then expand. It will then become a cooler, red giant star.

Answer 6

Our sun won't go supernovae; it's not massive enough. When it runs out of fuel, our sun's outer layers will expand into a planetary nebula and the core will become a white dwarf.

Answer 7

Yes, it will happen in about 5 billion years.

Answer 8

The sun explodes, and is exploding, at this very second.

But by explode, I think you mean, blow up.
No, the sun will never blow up.
In millions of years, the sun will run out of Hydrogen and Helium, and will actually be solid.

Answer 9

It will go super nova then it will die down into a white dwarf star

Answer 10

In space, everything implodes, not explodes.
