What will happen to Jupiter and the other gas Giants when the Sun becomes a Red Giant?

As the Sun expands into a red giant, it will likely engulf Mercury, Venus, and potentially Earth. Jupiter and the other gas giants will see their orbits affected by the Sun's growing size, potentially being pushed further out or having their orbits disrupted. Ultimately, they may survive as distant icy bodies or be ejected from the solar system.


When will your sun turn into a red giant?
