Solar Changes
The sun is about 5 billion years old and half way through its life as a medium size star will live for about 10 billion years.
Can you imagine what would happen to you if you could live that? What type of evolutions the cells in your body could actually accomplish?
Over the next few billion year, the sun will get twice as bright and 50% bigger.
That also means that in 5 billion years its core will burned out and its core will start to shrink and as that happens, a lot of gas in its surface will cool it down and will make it redder.
The bad news is that that much stronger sun will burn earth. Perhaps by then the humans can leave in further planets such as Mars or whatever is necessary to continue our existence.
The sun is supposed to end as white dwarf, do you think humanity will be there to see it? I sure hope so.
One can only imagine what can happens to humans in that many years. Actually we will probably turn into something else as evolution keeps its way.
