The sun will shine only for 12 billion years

The sun will shine only for 12 billion years 


The heaviest star discovered so far is 260 times heavier than the sun and 10 million times brighter. When all its fuel is burnt, it may be that it will end like a supernova. Or a black hole can also be formed. The atomic elements emanating from it will spread in space.

It is believed that the material that makes planets and living beings, such as iron present in our blood, has also come into the world from stars. Without sunlight and heat, our earth would be a morgue. The sun gives us life and makes our eyes relaxed.

We can see up to six thousand stars in the sky with open eyes. They look like small dots to us because they are far away from us. Stars are actually huge celestial bodies made up of hot and electrically charged gases. There are so much heat and pressure inside them that light atomic elements like hydrogen keep colliding with heavy elements like helium. The stars shine through nuclear fusion within them. And one such star which shines before us all day is the sun. Because he is very close to us, scientists are able to study it in detail. The sun is much larger than the earth. But it is much smaller than the rest of the stars.

Astronomers have divided the stars into different groups according to their brightness and color of light. Most stars are part of the mainstream. In the middle is our sun. In this way, he is a normal star. Red small stars are included in the smallest group. Since the hydrogen present in them burns slowly, they can be up to trillions of years old. On the contrary, our sun will only shine for 12 billion years.
