    I agree. Ever hear "Reach for the Sky"? That's my friggin MOTTO-"So if you'd please, take this moment-try if you can to make it last. Don't think about no future, and just forget about the past, and make it last."

    I know you're joking but if we could somehow make a bomb that could travel all the way there it would burn up before touching the surface of the sun.

    Maybe that's what you believe, but technology's advancing so fast these days that they've already made a sheep live to 50 human years just by feeding it some concoction or another.

    Maybe, just maybe, one person on here may have the answer to our problem. No answer is wrong, none is fully right.

    Believe, Bacco, and many things will be seen that you have never seen before.​

    Angel is right, plus the sun is a star and I was told that the end of the owrld was when the sun died as all stars do. Without the sun, we'll freeze to death in mili-seconds.

    If scienctist's found away to keep a star alive for longer then maybe that could stop it. I may be losing it and this maybe totally wrong.

    Nothing is wrong. It's your opinion, and everyone has a right to say what they believe.

    That's true, scientists may be able to find a way to keep the sun alive for longer. But the sun's temperature is over 2000 degrees (celcius) its probably way more than that, and i'm probably off by a long shot, but still, I doubt we would be able to get close enough without disintergrating/dying.

    Unless a certain method was discovered to stop or reduce mass heating to the body.

    Yeah, humans are quickly developing with all our technology, we will never know unless the worlds end is within our life time what will happen. We are clever and something may be taken into action.

    The easiest solution to extending the life of the sun would be to slow down the rate at which it turns hydrogen into helium (i.e. nuclear fusion) this would decrease the energy it produces (making it colder) but could extend it's life span by thousands of years (maybe, that's a guess =/).

    As I have said before there's no point in worrying about it, there is only a very small chance that the world will end in our lifetimes :P.

    Quite true. Look how much we've advanced in 100 years. How much will we advance in 200 years from now? If the sun is going to explode in 5 billion years, I don't think we will ever need to worry about it.

    Even if technology slowed down the process, I doubt it could destroy the problem entirely.

    Some of the attitudes here kinda bother me. "We won't be around that long, who cares?" That's one reason why global warming is as bad as it is. We should care because for all we know our mistakes will effect our desendents(sp?) that could still be around. The Sun won't completely destroy Earth...just melt it. As it expands its gravity will lessen causing Earth to move away...of course we won't live on Earth by then. Either all humans are dead or somewhere else by that time.

    Ooos, sorry! I didn't know what bumping was when I joined, and I was just going through old posts because I'm new...

    Sorry, didn't mean to go off topic. Anyways, I agree with ArchAwesomeman. I care about the people of the future. I'd hate to know what they'd go through.

    That's 5 billion years into the future...I don't care. And what about 2012? WWIII looks like it's coming up at least by 2010, thus leading to the world's ultimate destruction of bombs, nuclear weapons, and all these gases and chemicals and terrorist attacks, the world will probably end sooner than we may think.

    *highfives Light* 2012 may not be the end of the world. So many times have people predicted the end and yet nothing happens. Remember Y2K? WWIII? I wouldn't know about that...maybe, maybe not.

    yeah...i've heard of that...but its in 5 billion years! I kind of feel the human race will be gone by then. We've almost used up our planet's oil supply and we probably wont stop there at resources. Next thing you know we'd use up all of another resource and another and another and finally the world would be a barren waste land. I'm not being pessimistic, but I can guarantee that this would happen before the destruction of the planet itself.

    The thing is that we won't be alive for five billion years unless some science fiction or anime phenomena makes a various selection of humans eternal until then.
    But we all know that is highly unlikely.

    Like someone else said before, the only time plane I'm concerned about is the one I'm living in currently.
    That's what I, and many other people in an obvious manner, are worried about.
