FIA new study suggests Earth might survive the Sun's expansion into a red giant, challenging previous assumptions. The research, published in 'Astronomy & Astrophysics,' indicates that while all life on Earth will eventually disappear in five billion years due to the Sun's evolution, the planet itself may avoid being consumed by the expanding star. As the Sun expands, its gravitational pull could draw Earth closer, but the loss of mass during this process might push Earth outward onto a more distant orbit. Researchers used models and observations of other stars like L2 Puppis to support their findings, though uncertainties remain regarding the exact rate of mass loss during the Sun's expansion.
