Vivid?
As the Sun runs out of its hydrogen fuel, it will start to expand and become a red giant. This expansion will eventually cause the Sun's outer layers to engulf and consume the inner planets of our solar system. Eventually, the Sun will shed its outer layers and become a small, dense white dwarf.
While the Sun's expansion will certainly have a significant impact on Earth, it is not likely to completely destroy the planet. However, the intense heat and radiation from the Sun's expansion will make Earth uninhabitable long before it reaches the end of its life.
As the Sun becomes a red giant, it will expand and consume the inner planets of our solar system. The outer planets, such as Jupiter and Saturn, will also be affected by the Sun's expanding layers, but they are expected to survive. However, without the Sun's heat and light, these planets will become very cold and dark.
The Sun is currently about halfway through its estimated 10 billion year lifespan. It is expected to become a red giant in about 5 billion years, and will continue to burn through its remaining fuel for a few hundred million years before becoming a white dwarf.
Before the Sun reaches the end of its life, it will go through several stages of expansion and contraction. These changes will cause the Sun to become a more luminous and redder star, which will likely have an impact on the other planets in our solar system. However, these changes will occur over millions of years, so they may not be noticeable to humans.
