Când vom rămâne fără Soare? Un studiu arată că Sistemul Solar s-ar putea destrăma mai repede decât se credea

A recent study suggests that after the Sun becomes a white dwarf, the orbits of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune may destabilize, potentially ejecting them from the Solar System. This research indicates that in nearly 90% of simulations, these giant planets lose their stable orbits within three billion years post-transformation. The Sun will expand into a red giant in about six billion years, leading to significant changes in the Solar System's architecture. The gravitational interactions among planets could amplify orbital instabilities, resulting in dangerous encounters or ejections into interstellar space. While these scenarios are possible, they do not predict an exact timeline for planetary disappearance.
