Sun bakes dead Earth
Dying Earth. Image 5 of 9. Artwork of the bloated Sun baking the remains of the Sphinx statue hundreds of millions of years from the present time. The Moon is seen in front of the disc of the Sun, showing how much the Sun has expanded. The Sun will heat up and expand into the red giant phase seen here as it uses up its nuclear fuel. All water on Earth has evaporated into space. The wisps of cloud comprise hot gases formed from the breakdown of rocks. Earth will be a barren world devoid of life. For a sequence showing the death of the Earth as the Sun expands and dies over the next five billion years, see images E402/058-066

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hauntingly beautiful image, we witness the grim fate of our beloved planet Earth. The once vibrant and thriving Sphinx statue now stands as a solemn reminder of a bygone era, hundreds of millions of years in the future. As the bloated Sun looms overhead, its fiery rays scorching every inch of the desolate landscape, we are confronted with an apocalyptic vision. The Moon defiantly obscures part of the Sun's disc, highlighting just how much our dying star has expanded. Its relentless hunger for nuclear fuel propels it into the red giant phase depicted here. With all water evaporated into space long ago, Earth is reduced to a barren wasteland devoid of life. The wisps of cloud that linger in this arid desert are not remnants of rain but rather hot gases formed from rocks breaking down under extreme temperatures. This illustration serves as a chilling testament to what lies ahead - an uninhabitable world consumed by scorching heat and eternal desolation. As we gaze upon this artwork capturing the final stages in our planet's demise, let us reflect on humanity's role in shaping its destiny. May it serve as a stark reminder that we hold both the power to preserve and destroy our fragile home among the stars.
