The Fate of Our Sun

Ғылым және технология

For billions of years the Sun has been the perpetual, life-giving star in our sky. It's a force of immense power, yet one we take for granted in our every day lives. But like all things, it too must eventually end. Today, we chronicle the future of our home star, its various phases, why this all happens, and the final fate of our Solar System.
Written and presented by Prof David Kipping. Edited by Jorge Casas. Thanks to Matt Scoggins for checking the script.

    @@poneill65 Not at all, David strikes me as eminently authentic in his wonder of the cosmos. His palpable disappointment at not getting JWST time to seek out new moons shows me someone who deeply desires to understand the universe we inhabit. Of course, I could be wrong, but that is not currently my belief. Also, we're humans. How language is delivered matters a great deal, you could have 1,000 people quote Shakespeare and it wouldn't be the most robotic who moved me or made me grasp its meaning most fully, it would be the person who captures it with the most humanity. You and I disagreeing on this is one of the reasons I love being human though, different perspectives and interpretations have led to our flourishing more than hindered it.

    @@MasonHerrick I don't doubt his sincere passion about science. For me, it's just the clearly contrived delivery he employs at times (the "hushed wonder" Brian cox impression). That's not his normal speaking voice, it also not accidental "in the moment". It's a manipulative contrivance. It's creating a brand, a persona to boost his public "talking head" gig. For me that tomfoolery is an irritant, and a little bit insulting. Horses for courses I guess.

Also, I need to give you some additional credit for instilling a sense of sadness and love towards our mother star. I actually did feel a little sad at the end of the video and as a science storyteller; you are second to none. I truly wish I could hear you lecture in person. Stay awesome!

    Your lovely narration masks the detailed description you're slipping in. I never knew that the sun will go through two giant phases like that, and other surprises I never knew. Really outstanding science communication!!! Total aside, but I never really understood why astrophysicists don't review their nomenclature and just fix things - like "planetary nebulae" or "metals". I think of science as the ultimate in rigor and precision but then there is this seemingly confusing terminology. It seems like every science communicator has to include an aside explaining why the name doesn't fit what we would guess from it. I dunno, just a silly pet peeve of mine.

I very much enjoy these lectured documentaries that invite us on journeys within our universe. Ever since I watched "A Journey to the End of the Universe," my outlook on the universe and our place in it has shifted from obliviousness and ignorance to gratitude and awe. Sometimes I even try to explain some of the concepts I have learned over the past four years to other people, as best I can, whenever I can. Hats off to your vision and what you do, sir.

    The idea is called “stellar lifting.” Ways to remove mass from the Sun to slow its rate of fusion and helium concentration in the core. It’s an absolutely massive engineering problem, but it’s theoretically plausible and we have millions of years to figure it out. Imagine building billions + mirrors around the sun that can focus its own light back on a small spot on the sun, greatly increasing its temperature in that one spot, essentially creating a non-stop coronal mass ejection which could then be collected and transported elsewhere for storage. Issac Arthur is a good follow if you’re interested in those types of fringe/sci-fi ideas.

    @@sorryplease5071 that may be a tactic used when we are capable of building the machines that can build a project on such a scale. To arrive at that stage we need to constantly gain in our knowledge possibly allowing humans to accomplish this construction. To achieve these gains it will be people like professor Kipping that will help us to learn how it all works. Cool Worlds really can't be clumped in with the junk science channels.
