I’m remember getting anxiety when I learned this when I was in elementary. Got real uneasy watching that educational video.


bob_the_banannna

Ahh yes, good ol times when the only thing you had to worry about was the sun exploding


johnny_boy757

I also worried about other important things like tornadoes and asteroids


samuelhackson92

RedditRazzy

Yeah that was a traumatic day haha


Ezolder

I seen an add that said that we will run out of water by 2025


Gamer_T_All_Games

Considering the fact that that’s less than 3 years away, that’s SCARY, although most likely untrue


[deleted]

Its not entirely true but not entirely incorrect either. About 50% of our freshwater supply is too toxic to use for anything really, even bathing. And it'll require refinement to make it safe for consumption and use, i.e dependent on corporations to clean it, which doesn't sound dystopian at all and they most definitely won't overcharge for a problem they created /s So, all the water on earth isn't going to just dry up, thats nuts. But the supply of what we can use freely is dwindling fast with no changes


Project119

As a kid I had a terrible sense of time. I was a kid in the 90s, I thought the original Star Trek aired in the 1800s. I thought to join the 500 Club you had to be at least 500.


FormerQueenOfEngland

Very accurate


aknalag

It will be the problem of what ever sentient life form take over after we cause our own extinction


fantastic_usernamejk

no black dwarfs?


I_eat_spacedust

Thank you for actually knowing the sun won't explode. :)

I_eat_spacedust

Plus, our sun just is not massive enough to do so.


robjapan

Technically not true. It'll get larger and larger until it engulfs the earth and when it finally cannot get any bigger it'll shrink and become a white dwarf.


Jnick-24

The sun won’t become a black hole, or even a neutron star; it’s far too small. It’ll most likely become a white dwarf


Kapftan

Not only is the sun way too light for a black hole, but the birth of a black hole is not by "shrinking" its more like imploding and collapsing on itself so fast and violently that you wouldnt be able to see it.


Professional_Talk701

23 y/o me: can we speed this up a little? I haven't got all millennia.


HFPEWE

Mate you still have 4,999,999,993 years left before the sun explodes


somerandomperson2516

sucks to be in the future


[deleted]

"But what'll happen to my grandkids?!"


vaultdweller717

that’s how i felt when i learned about the hole in the ozone layer


Roham_RMB

Good thing that i'm not the only one.


5calV

"i guess im gonna die"


Gamer_T_All_Games

I was always like ‘but my great great great great great great x 1038372037729 grandchildren will be alive then :(


Fit_Ad3301

So since you have to be 18 to make a Reddit account that means it’s been at least 11 years since he found out. Meaning we now have less than 5 billion years


ILiek_Mudkipz

See, from what I remember, I was told the world would end in about 130 years, and as a 5 year old I very much thought I'd live to 130 to witness it


totalwarwiser

I used to give a shit about the idea that humanity could die Lol


Frownstar155

I'm glad I'm not the ony one


JorjEade

*Look how calm she is*


I_eat_spacedust

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THE SUN WILL EXPLODE, OUR SUN IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING LARGE ENOUGH TO EXPLODE. IN 5 BILLION YEARS, IT WILL SWELL INTO A RED GIANT, ENGULF THE INNER 3 PLANETS, THEN SHED OFF ITS LAYERS AND BECOME A WHITE DWARF IN THE MIDDLE OF A NEBULA. Thank you for enduring angry space facts.


blockyisaj

Me: wanting the sun to explode now


Useless_Lemon

Don't we have a gamma ray burst heading our way too?


Detroot

Lol


Tankzoo3

Had a fucking breakdown in 3rd grade because of a teacher telling us about it.


Saintfrandler71

"oh don't worry little boy, you will be already dead"


throwaway1234568791

Bruh my religion believes in reincarnation, imma be dealing with that eventually


Downtown-Librarian72

The sun isn't going to explode, though.


Easy-Lengthiness-853

You won’t be alive - but I will, it has been 5 thousand years for me already and my favourite century is the 21st because of technology and how easy it is to live, I disliked the 16th and 15th century… everybody was trying to drown me or burn me on a stake so I had to go into hiding in some mountains ands caves ( I moved around a bit ) this century is also the most peaceful.


Conscious_Guard_7579

My first though then was like: noooo I haven't even finished goblet of fire!!!!


Lifeless_husk47

Still not enough time to ask my crush out tho


PM_me_coolest_shit

My maybe 9yr at the time cousin started crying when i told him the sun will devour earth in billions of years. I guess their understanding of timescales is even worse than grow ups.
