What Happens When the Sun Dies? 0 (0)

The Sun is currently in the main-sequence phase of its life, during which it is fusing hydrogen into helium in its core. This phase will last for about 10 billion years. But what happens after the sun dies?

This Might Be the Largest Thing in the Universe 0 (0)

If you thought galactic clusters were the largest structures in the universe you’d be wrong because, on a larger scale, even these clusters clump together in huge cosmic filaments. These filaments are the largest structures in the universe, stretching hundreds of millions of light-years in length and about 20 million light-years in thickness.
