What would happen if the Sun suddenly exploded?
The sun is a star, and when a star explodes it’s called a supernova. Even humans are made of star stuff! If the sun suddenly exploded like this, the whole solar system would be destroyed. You don’t have to worry though – only stars ten times the size of our sun, or bigger, can explode like this.
When the Sun explodes will it destroy Earth?
The most probable fate of the planet is absorption by the Sun in about 7.5 billion years, after the star has entered the red giant phase and expanded beyond the planet’s current orbit.
What would happen if our Sun suddenly became a black hole?
Rayman: The gravitational pull of the Sun, a black hole, or anything else for that matter depends only on its mass and distance from us, so even if the Sun were compressed to become a black hole, it would pull only as hard on Earth as it does now. Earth wouldn’t be pulled inside if the Sun were compressed to become a black hole.
When do people think the Sun is going to explode?
It is very, very far into the future! The sun is now in the middle of its life cycle, and will explode in about 4-5 billion years In the few hundred million years before the explosion, it will swell up and become a red giant as big as the Earth’s orbit.
What would happen if the Sun crashed into Earth?
Long before it crashed into the sun, the atmosphere would burn off and all life would die. As the earth approached the Sun, it would come apart due to immense tidal forces. It would be swallowed by the Sun and completely obliterated, and all that would remain would be a small sun spot, which would quickly disappear.
What will happen if the Sun suddenly goes out?
If the sun goes away or disappears suddenly, we all will freeze to death. No life will be able to live on this earth. Scientists say that the present position of the earth from the sun is the correct one. Had the earth been still away or closer to the sun, no life would exist.
