and the ultimate fate of a star the same mass as our sun is to essentially burn out. Before that happens, though, the heat is going to go way up.
A protostar that is too small to become a star is called a BROWN DWARF. It produces heat for a few million years. Fading Stars When stars run out of fuel, they die. How this happens depends on their mass. A WHITE DWARF is a small, dense, dying star that releases an expanding gas ...
Death Valley's temperatures routinely exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit during the summer, and it also has the highest recorded air temperature in the entire world – 134 degrees Fahrenheit. As such, stranded or unwary travelers can easily find themselves in mortal heat danger, and if this happens in...
Here, the predicted size of the universe under the standard cosmological model is similarly dependent in a highly sensitive fashion on a measure of the flatness of the universe which, for reasons still not fully understood (but likely caused by some sort of inflation mechanism), happens to be ...
The same thing happens on a much larger scale. The Sun, and every other star, is radiating heat into the universe. But they can’t do it forever. Eventually the heat will have spread out so much that there won’t be warmer objects and cooler objects. Everything...
