If the sun blew up would another universe be created?

Answer 1

um, our sun will not blow up, it is a mid sized star and what happens to stars its size is that when they start to die the expand until they disipate, when that happen it will be the end of our solar system and earth its self, but that is still like 5.6 billion years away, the end of the universe will comoe according to some scientists in about 250 billion years, and they say it will keep spreading out until everything gets streched out and evaporates, but this will cause ripping of attoms, which will cause big atomic explosions, throwing matter, mostly in the centre of the universe, creating another big bang, and thus a new universe is formed. A bunch of big ass suns explode in the universe each day and they are called supernovas, and they cause black holes, not new universes.

Answer 2

If the sun you are referring to is the star nearest to us or the one approximately 149476000 kilometers away from planet earth, then the answer would be no. There are 4 reasons why this is so. =)

1. The phenomena of a star blowing up is known as a Supernova which is, in scientific lingo, a stellar explosion that creates an extremely luminous object. Our sun does not have sufficient mass to explode as a supernova. Instead, in 4-5 billion years, it will enter a red giant phase and eventually become a white dwarf. So in the first place, our sun will not and cannot, blow up.

2. On average, a supernova occurs about once every 50 years in a galaxy the size of ours (the Milky Way galaxy). With the first supernova ever recorded, the SN 185, observed by Chinese astronomers in AD 185. Thus we can deduce that the supernova phenomena has occured before and will continue to occur in our galaxy and that the result of its occurence does not involve the creation of another universe.

3. The Universe is defined as the summation of all particles and energy that exist and the space-time in which all events occur. There are more than one hundred billion (10^11) galaxies in the Universe, each containing hundreds of billions of stars. Hence it is not difficult to see then that a supernova explosion is somewhat analogous to the popping of a balloon on earth. Popping a balloon will not result in the creation of a new earth.

4. Finally, the supernova phenomena should not be confused with the big bang theory of the beginning of the universe. The Big Bang is the cosmological model of the universe whose primary assertion is that the universe has expanded into its current state from a primordial condition of enormous density and temperature. In other words, the big bang is essentially a theory about how the universe began, while supernovas are essentially the phenomena of certain stars exploding nearing the 'end' of their lifespans as stars. They are not the same.

So uh, yeah. Even if our sun and all the stars in our galaxy went kaboom at the same time another universe still cannot be created... but it is interesting to note though that it was because THE UNIVERSE BLEW UP that the stars were created.. =)

Answer 3

No. Our sun does not actually have enough mass to create a universe, except, we mere mortals would sure miss it.. The sun is one of 200 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. The exploding. sun would turn its 9 (or 10) planets into barren scorched rocks no longer having any gravitational center to orbit. Each would respond to the sun's blast and each head off in their own direction (as soon as the blast's impact hit them) The Milky Way would hardly notice our solar system's absence, and continue on its merry way with only extremely minute gravitational adjustments.. If you get word of anything in the works, put it on the web, as I'll head for the Carlsbad Caverns which is 54 degrees year round. (wishful thinking.) Fun question.

Answer 4

Never in a million years. If the sun blew up, it would form a very dense neuron star after the supernova which would probably create a black hole. All the remains of the sun would form a nebulae. We wouldn't be able to experience it though because we wouldn't exist. The size of the universe cannot be measured in any way.

Answer 5

No, the sun is just an average star. And it couldn't blow up, its not massive enough.

Stars more massive than our sun explode all the time (they are called supernova) and while they destroy themselves and anything within a few light years, and they can radiate a lot of energy and gravitational waves that affect nearby dust and gas clouds, they don't have any effect other than within maybe 50 light years. The universe is about 93 billion light years across.

Answer 6

No.

That's not how it works.

The sun is just a star. A plain medium, run of the mill star. If it blew up, it would definately change our lives and the rest of the Solar system. But the rest of the Galaxy and Universe won't really notice much.

Answer 7

no - our sun is like a spot of ink on one page of all the papers and books ever written or printed - as a comparison of our sun to the universe.
it has no effect on the universe and it certainly cannot create another universe - it's energy and mass is not sufficent for that

Answer 8

Our sun is only a tiny part of the universe. Or do you mean solar system? There are billions of solar systems. Maybe billions of planets that have intelligent life on them, but they are too far away to visit.

Answer 9

no the sun is just a star in the milky way galaxy which is in the universe. and if it does explode it will destroy our whole planet and the solar system

Answer 10

absolutely...
