Over the next billion years, the star will gradually grow and expand. In the process, it will become even hotter than it is now, causing the Earth's oceans to heat up and evaporate. The brightness of the Sun will increase to such an extent that any life on the surface of our planet will become impossible. According to scientists, this will happen in 999,999,996 years.
In 2024, NASA scientists discovered another threat to Earth - solar storms. Powerful solar flares and coronal mass ejections will change the atmosphere, raise temperatures and lower oxygen levels.
Experts have named several possible rescue scenarios. Technology will allow us to avoid extinction. By developing effective life support systems, humanity will be able to provide oxygen and water to confined spaces. People will have the opportunity to survive in an artificial environment.
Another possibility is to move to another planet. This rescue plan will work if scientists can find a planet suitable for human existence and develop a way to get there, Mir24 reports.
Earlier, the date of the end of the world was found in a letter from Isaac Newton. The wait is not long - according to the calculations of the scientist, it will come in 2060. Newton calculated the date based on dates from the biblical story. In his opinion, the Apocalypse will happen 1260 years after the founding of the Holy Roman Empire. He chose the year 800, the coronation of Charlemagne, as his starting point.
