If Earth is not ejected during a stellar encounter, then its orbit will decay via gravitational radiation until it collides with the Sun in 10 20 (100 quintillion) years. [110] If proton decay can occur and Earth is ejected to intergalactic space, then it will last around 10 38 (100 undecillion) years before evaporating into radiation.
Such pulses may last a few hundred years, and are thought to occur periodically every 10,000 to 100,000 years. [13] After the flash, helium fusion continues at an exponentially decaying rate for about 40% of the cycle as the helium shell is consumed. [13] Thermal pulses may cause a star to shed circumstellar shells of gas and dust. [citation ...
Outer Wilds is set in a planetary system consisting of a sun orbited by a number of celestial bodies: the Hourglass Twins, a pair of planets orbiting each other with sand flowing from one to the other; Timber Hearth, a forested Earth-like planet that is the homeworld of the four-eyed Hearthian species; the Attlerock, a small rocky moon orbiting Timber Hearth; Brittle Hollow, a hollow planet ...
All good things must come to an end, and, unfortunately for us, that includes the sun. But just how much time do we have until the light goes out? All good things must come to an end, and ...

The galactic year, also known as a cosmic year, is the duration of time required for the Sun to orbit once around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. [1] One galactic year is approximately 225 million Earth years . [ 2 ]
The moon will appear to move in front of the sun beginning at 2:07 p.m. on April 8 in Rochester, New York. The window of totality is just 3 minutes and 38 seconds, with variance for location, and ...
The Sun's luminosity increases in the year 427,821,025, causing plants to die in the year 833,270,413, followed by life as a whole in the year 2,952,729,059, as oceans evaporate. The Sun then expands and becomes a red giant — destroying Earth in the process — before dying as a white dwarf in the year 7,650,412,497.
