Will Our Sun Expand and Go Nova or Shrink into a Black Hole?

RE: Will Our Sun Expand and Go Nova or Shrink into a Black Hole?
Our sun doesn't contain enough mass to become a black hole but it will expand and go super nova in the end though.

I don't think it will though... violently expel some layers into a planetary nebula, sure, but I don't think it has the mass for a SN.

Shouldn't have canceled my renter's insurance. Guess I just wasn't thinking long-term.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Even though we will all be long extinct, and even though we wont be conscious then, the neat thing is that the atoms from billions of years ago, will be part of some other material then.

In a couple of billion years someone ask me if I give a shit.

That's the point. This is the epitome of Macbeth Act 5 Scene 5, "flurry of activity signifying nothing".

It can't possibly. The Chandrasekhar Limit is 1.4 solar masses. Our Sun is 1 solar mass, by direct classification.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Our rather ordinary star will expand until the orbit of the Earth is inside the star. This will make Mars a rather pleasant place to live.

So all we have to do is avoid bombing, polluting and genetically modifying ourselves into extinction, and we'll be able to terraform Mars and move right in. Kewl. Wonder how that will effect my astrological forecast? Talk about a star-crossed planet.
