In theory, it can't. Astronomers consider time and space to be different sides of the same function - they call it "timespace". As long as time continues, space will continue to expand.

What will happen to the sun when it runs out of fuel for fusion?

When the sun runs out of fuel for fusion, it will expand into a red giant, shedding its outer layers into space, before eventually collapsing into a white dwarf. This process will take several billion years to occur.


Which star expands due to fusion?

As a star ages and runs out of fuel in its core, it can expand in size as it transitions into a red giant. During this phase, fusion reactions occur in the outer layers of the star, causing it to expand and cool. This expansion happens when the star exhausts its hydrogen fuel and begins fusing helium in its core.


What defines outer space?

The Earth's atmosphere gets progressively thinner at higher altitudes, and runs out completely at about 200 miles up, which is where outer space begins. Outer space is surprisingly close; only 200 miles away.


What happens to a large star when it runs out of fuel?

When a large star runs out of fuel, it undergoes a supernova explosion, where the core collapses and releases a huge amount of energy. The outer layers are expelled into space, forming a nebula, while the core either forms a neutron star or a black hole, depending on its mass.


How does a dying star shed its gases?

As a star runs out of fuel and starts to die, its outer layers expand and are pushed away by the strong radiation pressure from the core. This forms a glowing shell of gas called a planetary nebula. Eventually, the core collapses into a white dwarf, while the expelled gas dissipates into space.


If the sun runs out of its core it will evolve into a?

If the sun were to run out of its core hydrogen fuel, it would evolve into a red giant star. During this phase, it would expand and eventually shed its outer layers into space, forming a planetary nebula, before collapsing into a white dwarf.


What is a large cool star form when a star runs out of hydrogen?

When a star runs out of hydrogen in its core, it starts fusing helium into heavier elements like carbon and oxygen. This process causes the outer layers of the star to expand and cool, becoming a red giant.


What happens when the odometer on a car runs out of space for more miles?

When the odometer reaches it's maximum capacity it rolls over to 00000 and starts over.


What happens when a star burns up all of its hydrogen?

When a star runs out of hydrogen fuel in its core, nuclear fusion slows down and the core contracts while the outer layers expand. The star becomes a red giant as it fuses heavier elements in its shell, until eventually it sheds its outer layers forming a planetary nebula, leaving behind a dense core known as a white dwarf.


What happens during the third stage of a stars life cycle as the star uses up all of its hydrogen?

During the third stage, a star expands and becomes a red giant as it runs out of hydrogen fuel in its core. The core contracts and heats up, causing the outer layers to expand. Eventually, the star will shed its outer layers to form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a dense core called a white dwarf.


What are the outer banks?

An island that runs along the outer edge of North Carolina. Popular family vacation spot.


What will be the fate of your sun if it runs out of hydrogen in its center?

It'll start fusing Helium, then it will expand into a Red Giant, swallowing Mercury, Venus and Earth. So, basically, we'll all die, but we have about 5bn years before that happens...
