So our sun won't go "kaboom". Phew :)
But what it will do is not pleasant either. It will expand to about the orbit of Mars.

In about 3.5-5 billion years, We'll all be dust by then.

Yeah, less than 3 hours before the 21st is history in CA, nothing happened here, outside of another danged bad DVD... One of these days I'll find a #12 Gundam Seed Destiny that's in perfect shape, I'm on My 4th DVD, 3 bad and 1 semi bad, And the semi bad is the best so far too...

You could go by my prediction. I have never been wrong.
The world will end!
I just don't set a date.
I will. In about 5 billion years when the sun starts trying to burn iron and turns into a red giant. I don't know if humans will be around to witness it though.
Very slim chance on that one.
Yep, this type star can't make iron, thankfully, since to fuse iron is impossible, when a large star tries(like a blue giant), it goes kaboom!!
It isn't impossible, but it doesn't generate any energy either.
And take another 20 billion years to cool down enough to use it if then. I'm not sticking around. LOL I'm like EX, I'm taking a vacation and by that time thay might have a great hotel on IO. LOL

Probably true, but with any luck and foresight, most of our descendants will be starting news worlds on distant planets before then.

With under pinning in science, like so...
Underpinning Theories
FTL: "Folding Space"
The FTL drive technology used within the Re-imagined Series might be based on the use of Superstring Theory and M-Theory that essentially enable the "jump drive" systems to "fold" space, reducing the distance between any two points by creating a "corridor" through space that links them together (essentially forming a wormhole, or Einstein-Rosen Bridge). Such "corridors" are allowed by the general theory of relativity; what M-Theory does is provide a way to change the topology of space-time dynamically.
The use of such wormholes is based on the tenet that space is curved. Hence the term "wormhole", which arises from the analogy that space can be seen as an apple. A worm can travel from one side of the apple to the other in two ways:
By crawling over the surface, or
By burrowing through the apple (creating a "wormhole").
Obviously, the second option is considerably shorter than the first. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's
