Solar system future: John Baez timeline
astro-boy replied to Martin's topic in Astronomy and Cosmology
yeah...but every stage in this Timeline may not be correct... eg. During the Red Giant Stage (second, probably), the first 4 or 5 Planets may be engulfed by the Sun...at least, the Earth will certainly be engulfed...and although I have read many articles saying that the Sun will become a Black Hole, it is very unlikely...seeing that it may not attain a mass of 8 Solar Masses which is required for a Black Hole. Hence, it will most probably become a White Dwarf.
