Why wont your sun become a black hole?

Answer 1

The sun won't become a black hole simply because it lacks sufficient mass to make the transition. A black hole is formed when a giant star reaches a point where it collapses. There is a "threshold" or minimum amount of mass a star must have to become a candidate to become a black hole. Our neighborhood star is too "light" to make the cut.

The only way for our star to become a black hole is to randomly gain almost 10x its amount of matter. even then we need to wait another 5 billion years for it to go supernova, and even if that happened, there is still the chance it will become just a neutron star.

Answer 2

There is a value known as the chandressakar limit that applies to stars, any star beyond that limit will lack the energy to go supernova at the end of its life and collapse into a black hole. Our sun does not exceed this limit.

Answer 3

Our sun does not have enough mass to undergo a supernova and collapse into a black hole. Instead, it is expected to evolve into a red giant and eventually shed its outer layers to form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a remnant core called a white dwarf.

Answer 4

The sun does not have enough mass to implode into a blackhole. It needs to be at least 10x the size of the sun.

Answer 5

The sun does not have enough mass to form a black hole. Only stars 25 times the mass of the sun or more can form black holes.

Answer 6

Because its too small. For a star to become a black hole, it has to be at least three times bigger than our sun.

Answer 7

Our own sun will not become a black hole simply because it isn't massive enough. For a black hole to form, a star needs to be at least 3x the mass of our sun.

Answer 8

The sun is not heavy enough to become either a supernova or a black hole. Only the larger stars have that capability.

Answer 9

Simply because it is not massive enough. A star needs to have a mass that's at least 3 times that of our own sun to turn into a black hole.
