AaS! 276: What Would Happen if the Sun…Stopped?
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of the Sun stopping its fusion process and how it would affect Earth.
What really keeps the Sun shining? How long would it stay warm if fusion stopped? How long would it take before we noticed? I discuss these questions and more in today's Ask a Spaceman!
