CRAP i forgot thaat it aint a white dwarf. Thanks for correcting me there mate XD
hope you guys enjoyed this little lesson on space,
After it forms into a Red Giant, it will then collapse under its own weight and gravity and turn into a dense White Dwarf
actually,No our star will not go supernova because the our Sun is too small, stars that do do this are much larger in size and wipe out all planets in their solar system when they do go supernova. What will happen to our star is that as the Sun grows with age it will turn into a Red Giant and Mercury, Venus, and maybe Earth too will be gobbled up by this Red Giant. This wont happen for another 5 billion years.
ok 1... the sun is NOT a white dwarf its actually is known as a "G-type main-sequence star" ok? 2. No not all suns go super nova, they can either go supernova, black hole (where a star collapses on itself from so much gravity),and 3. yes our sun will go supernova
yeah. the sun is currently a white dwarf, so its gonna take a hell of a lot of time bfore it gos supernova
Soapwurmskill909: It will happen in 7,4 Billion years from now
Soapwurmskill909: But not too fast
Soapwurmskill909: So yep,and all the materials inside of the Sun will be trowed in the interestellar space
I mean, currently the sun doesnt actually have enough energy to go supernova
