Correction: we mixed up the Sun’s lifespan with its age. Of course, the sun is only about 4.6 billion years old, halfway through its lifespan of about 10 billion years. That star at the center of our Solar System, that super hot ball of plasma that gives us heat and energy, and amazing complexions...well, it's a ticking time bomb. The Sun is about 10 billion years old. But it's only expected to last about another 5 billion years. After that, the Sun will expand, becoming a red giant. Then it will shrink to become a white dwarf, a dying star, cooling for the next several billion years. Of course, we'll all be long gone before any of that happens. But still, can you imagine what it would be like to watch the Sun blow up before your very eyes?

13.8 billion years ago, the entire Universe emerged from one single point in space. This theory is known as the Big Bang. And it’s the most widely accepted story of the creation of our Universe. But what if we have this all wrong? What if the Universe didn't start like this? What else were we wrong about?

Its base covers the same amount of land as Arizona and it is three times taller than Mount Everest.

Hang on because we’re about to screech to a halt. That’s right. The Earth is going to stop spinning for five seconds. How much damage would this sudden stoppage cause? What would you experience in different parts of the world? And when the Earth starts spinning again, would it still be habitable? How would the day and night cycle be affected? Why would there be strong winds?
