TRA recent study suggests that Earth may not be consumed by the expanding sun during its final stages, challenging previous assumptions. Scientists found that while the sun will expand into a red giant and later an AGB star, Earth's fate hinges on a balance between gravitational pull and the sun's mass loss via stellar winds. Previous models suggested Earth would be engulfed, but newer calculations indicate Earth might escape into a wider orbit. The research used advanced modeling techniques and data from a star similar to the sun, L2 Puppis, to refine predictions. While Mercury and Venus are likely to be destroyed, Earth and Mars may survive this process.
