What Exactly Have Scientists Discovered And Why Are They So Convinced That Octopuses May Not Be Earth's Creatures?

Since the discovery of the first exoplanet in the 1990s, scientists have found more than 4,000 exoplanets, some like the giant gas planets of our solar system, and others like earth-like planets. Some exoplanets may have very harsh environments, perhaps as hot as venus or mercury, or as extremely cold as other planets. Of course there are also exoplanets that may have relatively suitable temperatures, may be located in the habitable zone of a star system, are a potentially habitable planet, and may even be a living planet.

Will Jupiter, The 'King Of The Planets' In Our Solar System, Become a Star In The Future?

After the sun evolves into a red giant, the hydrogen in its core is almost completely fused into helium, so the nuclear fusion inside the sun stops, after which the sun loses its internal radiation pressure and continues to collapse, leading to a constant increase in temperature and pressure in its core, while the helium in the central region of the sun is gradually compressed into the condensed state.
