Researchers have long known that the solar system will eventually face the end of its existence due to the evolution of its central star, the Sun.
This was reported by the BBC Science portal.
In a recent study, scientists presented a more detailed picture of how the processes that lead to the sunset of the Sun and, accordingly, to the death of our Solar System will occur. Scientists claim that in the distant future, the solar system will be swallowed up by a white dwarf gradually, in pieces, which will lead to the fact that all planets and their satellites will be destroyed and turned into cosmic dust.
A white dwarf represents the final stage of a star’s evolution, when it runs out of fuel and does not have enough mass to become a black hole. The researchers, after analyzing 17 years of transit data, were likely able to draw significant conclusions about the movements of celestial bodies, including flybys of three white dwarfs.
Such observations can provide valuable information about the structure and composition of space objects, as well as the interactions between them. It is likely that the white calico had a huge impact on surrounding objects due to its incredible gravity. And if objects approached him, they were destroyed.
This behavior, when debris was devoured, may be due to the chaotic nature of transits and differ from stable orbits. Perhaps these observations can shed light on the processes in this system.
When a white dwarf absorbs material from a nearby star or other celestial body, it begins the process of absorbing that material. Astronomers study the composition of this material to determine the chemical composition of the planet or other celestial body that was engulfed. This process can give us information about the origin and composition of these objects.
