Oh honey, the sun will never become a supernova. It's not massive enough to go out with a bang like that. Don't worry, our sun will just peacefully puff out its outer layers and become a white dwarf when it's done shining bright like a diamond in the sky.

Will the sun turn into a super nova?

No. It does not have enough mass to become a supernova.


Will the sun go supernova in the future?

No, the sun will not go supernova in the future. It is not massive enough to undergo a supernova event. Instead, it will eventually expand into a red giant and then shed its outer layers to become a white dwarf.


Why do all stars end in a supernova?

Oops! Not all stars end up as a supernova. To become a Type 2 supernova, the star has to be between 8 and 50 times larger than the Sun.


Will our sun become a red giant then will it become a supernova then a black hole?

No, our sun is not destined to become a supernova and/or a black hole. It will become a red giant, but it is not massive enough to cross the threshold and become a candidate for a fate like either of those last two.


Does red giant star bigger than sun become a nova?

Yes.When the star explodes it will become a super nova.Our sun is too smal to make a supernova when it explodes.


When will the sun exploed?

No, the Sun doesn't have enough mass to Supernova, it will become a Red Giant over 5 billion years then slowly form into a Nebula.


Will the sun become a supernova or black hole?

No. When the sun dies it will expel its outer layers in a series of gradual pulses and leave behind a white dwarf.


Will our sun go supernova in the future?

No, our sun will not go supernova in the future. It is not massive enough to undergo a supernova explosion. Instead, it will eventually expand into a red giant and then shed its outer layers to become a white dwarf.


When will the sun be supernova?

Never. A star must be about 10 times the mass of the sun or more to go supernova.


How likely is it that a sun will become a supernova?

Our sun is not massive enough to supernova. Our sun will die in a different manner, but certainly not in 2012. The process of our sun's death will be very slow. Right now, the sun is what they call a "main sequence" star and is in the most stable stage of it's life and will be for quite some time. See related question.


Will the sun become a supernoval?

No, the Sun will not become a supernova. It is a medium-sized star and will end its life cycle as a red giant before shedding its outer layers to form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a white dwarf. Supernovae typically occur in much larger stars that can undergo gravitational collapse. Thus, the Sun's fate will be quite different from that of a supernova.


Will the sun ever go supernova in the future?

No, the sun will not go supernova in the future. It is not massive enough to undergo a supernova event. Instead, it will eventually expand into a red giant and then shed its outer layers to become a white dwarf.
