About the sun: The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect ball of hot plasma, heated to incandescence by nuclear fusion reactions in its core, radiating the energy mainly as visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared radiation. It is by far the most important source of energy for life on Earth. Can we (at least theoretically) extend the life of our Sun? Yes, theoretically we can. The Sun's end will come when all the hydrogen in its core has been fused to helium. But here we are only talking about hydrogen exhaustion in the core of the Sun. If you could somehow bring the hydrogen from the outer layers into the Sun’s core you could extend the life expectancy of the Sun from its current 10 billion years to probably about 100 billion years! Just a small fraction (about 10%) of the Sun's hydrogen will be used during its lifetime. A lot of pristine hydrogen will be blown away during the red giant phase, the last billion years before our Sun finally b
