Hi friends.!
We are discussing about a GAINT dying red star in another galaxy that could predict the fate of our sun.
The death of the stars in a galaxy far away is giving astronomers insight into.
What the death of our sun will look like
Scientists are expected that in 5 billion years ago our sun will evolve into a GAINT red star, over 100 times bigger than its current size. It eventually die and turn into a small, whit stars.
And alot of researchers has been observing this process on a star known as the p.1 gruis, the satta are situated over500 light years away from our galaxy. It has approximately the same mass as our sun and it's dying.
Scientists says that long time ago pi1 Gruis depleted it's hydrogen stores,with no more energy to burn and then stars began to get smaller and smaller. It's temperature also increased to over 100 million degrees.
These high temperatures triggered the fusion of helium to atoms like carbon and oxygen. The extreme heat also caused the star to expand.
Stars that go through this process are commonly called red giants.
According to the daily mail, scientists have not been able to get detailed images of surface of one at these dying red stars until today.
They used ESO'S very large telescope to examine the planet. During the examination,they found that convective cells dotted the planetary surface.
