Our Sun cannot, we believe, turn into a black hole. The Sun has too little mass to undergo the supernova explosion that would crush the core of the star into a black hole.
However, sometime "soon" (and in astronomy, "soon" could be anywhere within the next ten thousand years) we expect the red giant star Betegeuse to die just that way; a supernova explosion that will light up our sky like a second full moon, that will crush the core of the star into a black hole.

Is it possible for the sun to turn into a black hole?
No, the sun is too small. For a star to turn into a black hole, the star needs to measure 25 or more solar masses. The sun weighs in at 1 solar mass. Therefore, a star needs to be 25 times the mass of the sun to turn into a black hole.
When will our sun turn into a black hole?
It probably won't ever become a black hole, unless for some reason a lot of additional matter falls on the Sun. Stars the mass of our Sun become white dwarves after they run out of fuel.
Is there a possibility the sun could go super nova or turn into a black hole?
No. Our Sun isn't massive enough to go supernova, or to turn into a black hole. A star needs to be more than 3 times more massive than our Sun in order to become a black hole.
Is it possible for the sun to turn into a black hole because?
Our Sun is not nearly massive enough to become a black hole, or even a neutron star. Our Sun will end its life as a white dwarf.
How is it possible for the sun to turn into a black hole?
The sun cannot become a black hole. For a star to form a black hole it must be at least 25 times the mass of the sun. When a star like this runs out of fuel in its core, the core collapses and becomes a a black hole while the outer layers are blasted away in a supernova.
What determines if the sun will turn into a black hole?
The Sun probably won't turn into a black hole. What determines whether a certain star becomes a black hole is basically the amount of mass left over, once the star runs out of energy. Less massive stars turn into white dwarves; more massive stars into neutron stars; and the most massive of all, into black holes.
Does the sun have an black hole like Jupiter?
No. There not a black hole on the sun or on Jupiter.
It is impossible for the sun to turn into a black hole because?
The Sun doesn't have enough mass, and therefore, not enough gravity, for this to happen.
Why it is impossible for the sun to turn into a black hole?
Simply put, it isn't big enough. A star must have a certain mass to become a black hole after its "death", and the Sun doesn't have enough. Our "Sun" is not big enough, only stars that are a lot bigger will explode and become a black hole.
When was Black Hole Sun created?
Black Hole Sun was created in 1994-05.
Will our sun become a black hole or a neutron star?
Neither. Our Sun will turn into a red giant, and then cool to become a white dwarf.
Its impossible for the sun to turn into a black hole because?
It is unlikely, because the Sun doesn't have enough mass for that to happen.
