The sun is called humanity’s central star in the solar system and has a final destiny carefully mapped out by scientists and astronomers. Thanks to detailed studies by researchers at the University of Warwick and data provided by NASA, the date when it ends was known.

This transformation will mean the end of the life cycle as it is known today and for thousands of years, triggering a series of catastrophic events for the planets closest to it, including Earth. Regardless, there are still billions of years for this to happen, although it is still a truly terrifying event, whether life exists on the planet by then or not.
What experts say regarding the explosion of the sun
Scientists explain that when this happens, the Sun will stop producing heat through nuclear fusion and will expand to become a red giant. This process will cause Mercury and Venus to be engulfed by the expanding Sun, and intense solar winds will erode Earth’s atmosphere, exposing the planet to extremely hostile conditions.
Despite the severity of these changes, the eventual death of the Sun will mark a final chapter not only for the Solar System, but may also be a critical point for the existence of life as we know it, unless humanity has found ways to survive on other planets or in space.
From this perspective, astrophysicist Chris Manser and NASA studies suggest that following becoming a red giant, the Sun will eventually become a white dwarf, a stellar remnant that, although unable to host life due to its reduced luminescence and heat, will mark the final transition in its stellar evolution.
