It is estimated that the sun formed into a star about 4.57 billion years ago.
There is an 11 year cycle of activity which see the number of sunspots increase, decrease then increase again.
The sun is also slowly evolving as a star, at present is is fusing hydrogen in its core and is therefore known as a main sequence star. in two or three billion years time it will move off the main sequence as it runs out of hydrogen and starts to fuse helium. When it does this it will get very much hotter and expand to be come a red giant star.
hello my name is doctor dean, i have studied the sun and earth it is approximetly every 89 years the su n increases activity

Mars will revole around the sun forever until it blows up or the sun has a supernova
heaps you better have a smarter ??
Yes, many times. It takes it 248 years to go around the Sun, and while it was not discovered until 1930, it has been there for millions of years.
It will posibly take about 2 years to get to the sun from mercury.
It will take 177 years to get to the sun. 177 years is 64,605 days to travel to the sun from Earth.
The Earth will not blow up. It will, however, be consumed when the Sun expands into a red giant in 4-5 billion years.
The sun will never blow up. The sun will died in 5 to 7 billion years, but the process will be gradual.
Until monkeys take over. Or until the sun blows up in like a jillion gazillion years...
Mars will revole around the sun forever until it blows up or the sun has a supernova
Around 5 billion years.

The Sun will probably not simply "blow up"; it will gradually become larger, until about 5 billion years from now, it will be a red giant - and, assuming that Earth is not swallowed up by the Sun, it will become too hot here on Earth for any life.

Well currently it's on 4.5 billion years. It'll carry on until the Sun dies or until it's Mum gets scared and says "You're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-air"
The Sun is 4.6 billion years old and about halfway through the phase where is shines as it does now due to fusion reactions that convert hydrogen into helium. The Sun will continue this phase, with some variability, until it is about 10 billion years years old. About 5 billion years from now, the Sun will enter a red giant phase and expand greatly. This lasts for hundreds of millions of years before it blows off its outer layers creating a planetary nebula. In the next several billion years, what is left of the core of the sun will fade to a white dwarf and then continue to cool further forever. The Sun does not have enough mass to explode as a supernova.
Four to five billion years.
Our sun does not have the mass to 'explode'. It will expand to a 'red giant' in about 5 billion years the sun will explode around 10 billion years.
