Sun To Destroy Earth: Mankind to face extinction



According to a new scientific paper, scientists say that the sun, is going to destroy the earth. It would become so hot that the earth would become uninhabitable, and mankind will die out. But, I for one am not worried. How much time do we have? 7.6 Billion years. I think I should get started on my Bucket List.

There currently isn’t a sun cream in existence with sufficient factor value to counteract the upcoming bombardment our solar system’s star will eventually unleash upon the Earth, according to predictions issued by astronomers at the University of Sussex.

We can only hope that 7.6 billion years of evolution, which is how long those astronomers are suggesting it will take for the expanding Sun to absorb the Earth, is sufficient time to see mankind long since gone amid the stars.
