If the Sun Exploded Tonight, You'd Die Before the Light

If the Sun exploded tonight, you would not see it coming. Light takes eight minutes and 19 seconds to cross about 93 million miles. Neutrinos do not wait. This is a physics thought experiment. The Sun is not massive enough to go supernova. Walk the seconds anyway. 0:00 The last ordinary light 0:42 Eight Minutes Of Ordinary Sky 1:48 The Neutrino Front 3:12 When The Light Hits 4:18 The Night Side Bargain 5:12 And It Gets Worse 6:24 Debris On The Clock 7:36 The Star That Cannot 8:42 What Does Not Happen Tonight 9:54 The Real Deadline The Sun cannot explode as a core-collapse supernova.
