Will the [|sun] explode, the short answer is no,the sun does not hold enough like mass to form a [|type 2 supernova],(which needs about 8 solar massess to form.) A supernova is so powerful you could see it from millions of lightyears away.It is true that the [|Sun is getting very big and getting brighter]right now.the reason for this is that as it is burning hydrogen to helium in the core the amount of hydrogen there gradually decreaIn order to keep the energy generation rate the same, the temperature and density in the core must riseses.
