How long could you...
What would happen if the sun died (How long would you live on earth)
Within a week, the average global surface temperature would drop below 0°F. In a year, it would drop to –100°. Millions of years after that, our planet would reach a stable –400°. Of course, the sun doesn't merely heat the Earth; it also keeps the planet in orbit. If its mass suddenly disappeared, the planet would fly off, like a ball swung on a string and suddenly let go, because no sun. So basically you would instantly die if the sun went out
