Maggie’s Science of the planets- Literally what I was thinking about when trying to fall asleep last night....

[hermosabeach]

We all know the Sun is a ball of fire... We all know that at some point fires burn themselves out as all the fuel is consumed.

So how much mass does the sun burn each day? The sun is 4 + Billion years old..... that is a long time for a run away nuclear reaction to keep burning and warming everything around it..... When will it be all burned up?

We know Gravity is the attraction between 2 objects based upon their size (mass).

So it makes sense that as the sun shrinks due to losing mass due to burning..

When will the entire solar system spin apart as the sun's mass has shrunk enough that the earth breaks free of the Sun's Gravitation pull? Will another planet become the center or will all the planets just spin off into another part of space?

Will the Earth become a meteor that smashes into another planet or star wiping it out? Do we have enough fuel on our planet to heat it once the sun is gone?

Earth Is Spiraling Away From The Sun For Now, But Will Eventually Crash Into It

There are three factors all competing to determine the fate of the Earth, and the one that's winning now won't win in the end.

Why is the Earth moving away from the sun?

Every year, the Earth and sun move 15 centimetres farther apart – the culprit may be small tides raised on the sun by our home planet

Interesting thought, but that's not quite how the sun works. It may indeed "burn" 4 tons of hydrogen every minute, but the burning (nuclear fusion) produces very nearly 4 tons of helium. The few pounds that are lost are all that is converted to energy.

Does the Helium stay on the sun as an inert gas or float out into the vacuum of space?

 

[pmclaine]

Wouldnt the fact matter can not be destroyed mean that the sun stays neutral.

Wifes work is involved with Parker Solar Probe.

Perhaps when it is sitting a mere 3 million miles from Sol we will learn whats in its ejaculate.

They built a cup to catch samples.

Wonder if the probe shows a porn to get Sol in the mood.

Gravity. It stays with the Sun like the atmosphere stays with Earth. Fusion continues until the Sun runs out of He, at which point the Sun begins to die, (estimated at 4-5.5 billion years). It expands to a red giant (at which point the Earth will be consumed), as the core collapses, fusion of heavier elements begins until the start starts making Fe (iron). At this point, the core implodes and you get a supernova explosion. That phase may take 120 million years or more, but it won't matter to anyone on Earth. In about 1-1.5 billion years the Sun will be more than 10% brighter, and that heat will turn us into a copy of Venus, and by 2 billion years it will be 50% brighter and the oceans will have boiled off.

The gravity of the Sun is enuf to retain the helium. The fusion at the core of the Sun produces enuf energy to suspend much of the gas a considerable distance from the core. In a few billion years when all the hydrogen is fused all that gas will begin falling to the core. As pressure rises temp rises with it. (Natural gas laws) PV=nRT. When the temp gets hot enuf the helium will begin to fuse to higher elements (up to iron i think) much more enegery produced. The sun becomes a red giant.

It will explode on Wed Jan 25th.

But seriously if you like this kind of stuff check out Road to Reality by Roger Penrose. To say it's a heavy read is an understatement, but It'll get you thinking.

I always wondered if black holes eventually eat everything floating around, then each other, then big bang again. Seems like logical fisics to me.

Don't forget we're on a collision course with the Andromeda galaxy. Big bang, Big dark, no one here gets out alive.

Sorry-I cannot help myself sometimes. I'm told this is annoying.



Yeah-not seeing it.

PS: No one makes it out alive. Ever.

If you're having trouble falling asleep, then you probably don't want to watch this. It sure set my head spinning.

 

[winniedonkey]

Someone hit up Rick Sanchez. He seems to have figured out a thing or two.

[Thumper580]

No more dope for him......

 

[srtsam]

Rick Sanchez is the man!!!

 

[srtsam]

reading these posts hurt my head and brings me to one conclusion............buy more ammo lol

I always wondered if black holes eventually eat everything floating around, then each other, then big bang again. Seems like logical fisics to me.

there are 2 theories that are generally agreed upon about 70-30

70- is that the universe is ever expanding and in time the entire universe will expand so that even atoms are expanded into nothing (torn adapt) and the universe dies a cold stagnant death

30- is the idea that it will all collapse again, this was totally forgotten a few decades ago when they figured out the universe expansion is speeding up not slowing down which would indicate a rubber band effect bringing it all back together

although the return to the big bang has gotten so credibility again over the last decade

the biggest issue is the "dark matter" which we think we know exists but cannot figure out how its working yet. tons of theories but nothing really concrete

and then we get to the second before the big bang which no one can figure out yet

they use the term singularity which is really the creation of something from nothing

it boils down to we dont have the math yet to figure it out, scientists are hoping quantum mechanics and quantum physics along with artificial intelligence will help us out.

We have very different evening routines. I couldn’t sleep after things shit like that. I just count bouncing boobs till I’m dreaming about them.

The answers are seconds away, which wasn't the case when many of us were young.

In terms of what matters or has any effect on me or all of humanity, the sun will last forever, as will Earth's orbit around it.

Here in "middle time" where our brains evolved, very long = forever.

 

[pmclaine]

When the Sun becomes a red giant what will happen to Uranus?

 

[brianf]

my anus is like a bad day at taco bell, red giant is larger than earths orbit if i remember lol

Last physical Doc said "If thise rhoids are bothering you we can do something about it"

I replied "The kids are a bigger pain in my ass can you do something about them"

 

[winniedonkey]

Then there is the infinite dimension stuff. Time to bust out the psychedelics

One thing that has popped in my head a few times is our view of the universe, as in actually standing on Earth, looking at space stuff. Imagine Abbott and Costello, one at the north pole, one at the south pole. Both look up, what do they see?

So with the big bang...is the universe expanding in all directions or was it a shape charge that was pointed left?

Best explanation I heard was put some dots on a balloon.
