When the sun starts to burn off all of its fuel, however, it will start to lose its mass. The sun will then start to expand into a red giant. After this phase, the remaining part will shrink and become a white dwarf, which is about Earth's size but a million times denser and very hot. The expanded part of the sun will be released into space, creating a planetary nebula, which is basically an enormous ball of gas.
When the sun runs out of fuel for fusion, it will expand into a red giant star and eventually shed its outer layers to form a planetary nebula. The core that remains will cool down and contract into a dense white dwarf star.
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.
Yes, when the Sun runs out of fuel for nuclear fusion, it will eventually lead to its transformation into a red giant and then a white dwarf, significantly affecting life on Earth. As the Sun expands, it will likely engulf the inner planets, including Earth, or at least render it uninhabitable due to extreme temperatures. However, this process will take billions of years, so it is not an immediate concern for life on our planet.
At first, the sun will soon run out of its primary fuel, hydrogen. This will cause the sun's layers to expand, becoming a red giant. This will likely happen in 5 billion years. While scientists are unsure whether the expanded the sun will engulf the Earth or not, it will likely end life on Earth nonetheless.After it runs out of all fuel, including the heavier elements, it will begin shedding its outer layers and become a planetary nebula. Life on Earth would've almost certainly ceased by then.
It is postulated that towards the end of its life cycle, the sun will become a red giant, which will consume several of the inner planets, possible including the earth. Even if the diameter of the sun does not expand to the point where the earth is consumed, the increased heat and radiation due to the sun's closer proximity will exterminate life on earth. Eventually, the sun will collapse into a white dwarf.
Yes, but it is a long way off
No, it is hydrogen that is the fuel for fusion in the sun

When the sun runs out of fuel it is expected to turn into a red supergiant engulfing earth. Then it is supposed to shrink into a white dwarf.
no combustion dose not fuel the sun but the sun is fueled by a nuclear reaction known as fusion.
It will turn into a Red Giant and then its corona expands and disintegrates all of the Rocky Planets.
Fusion of hydrogen into helium
The hydrogen in the Sun is fuel for the nuclear fusion reaction.
