Sun Facts:What will happen if the sun get stolen by aliens
Intro about the sun
Let us imagine what would happen if the sun is disappeared for a second,for a minute ,for an hour, for a day,for a month or for a year.Let us see the fate of the earth after the sun is removed from the system and we will also see the implications on other planets. In the last article we have discussed what would happen if the moon gets burst and to read the article click right here.
Let us see its impact on planet earth and lets start our story.
Alien invasion on sun
Let us suppose that aliens from a far and a much developed civilization came to our solar system to steal our sun using their dyson Spheres.
Dyson sphere
Dyson sphere is a hypothetical concept in which the aliens come along with their large reflective mirrors and place it all around the star they want to capture.The mirrors are high powered and are alligned such that all the rays of the star is redirected to their own energy resource and extract all the energy and use it for their energy requirements. As the power of star decreases they take it away with them and use it for their purposes.
The sun is stolen
As soon as the sun is taken by the aliens all the planets including the earth loose all the gravitational power which they receive from the sun and they no more are attracted by the sun around which they used to revolve earlier.All the planets like jupiter,earth ,saturn ,uranus etc experience no gravitaional force now and they dont have any path to revolve around the sun.Now they wander in our solar system and are like floating giants and move here and there as there is no sun which keeps them in track and now they are free.
In our earth its daytime and everything is normal and no one is aware that the sun is stolen.This is due to the reason that sun rays take about 8mins and 20secs to reach from the sun to earth.What sunrays we see now was emitted 8min and 20 secs before and we are seeing every activity of sun in a delay of this time interval.Like the sunrise we see is over and we are seeing a past of the sunrise as it was done 8min and 20 secs before it
Lets get back to our story and see the consequences under various time intervals.
After 8 mins and 20 secs
Everything in earth is normaland the sun looks fine .No one knows that the most important element of solar system is destroyed and is no more.Everything is fine until after 8 mins and 20 secs the whole sky is covered by black colour and the sun is nowhere to be seen.They realized that the sun is stolen.In just one second all the stars of the solar system are vsible to us as sun is not there.Its complete darkness here.The moon and other planets are not visible anymore as they dont ahve their own light and they reflect sunlight only.The most adverse affect of this will be on plants as they rely on sunlight to stay alive using a process called as photosynthesis.As there is no sunlight the plants are unable to produce oxygen to earth.
After 1 hour
Many people are not able to understand what had just happened.The places where there was day also converted to night.The other half of world where there was night also came to know about the situation that the other half also has darkness everywhere.The earth begins to cool drastically but due to the core of the earth which is so hot there is not much difference and everything seems in control.
After 24 Hours
Everyone is hoping for a sunrise and the government is also not able to do anything as it is not under thier control.The temperature is getting down drastically as our atmosphere's heat is all used up and no new source of heat is available.Now the temperature is as down as 8 degree celsius and the animals and plants are not able to survive in this drastic conditions and are begining to die.But the deep sea life is not so affected as sun was nothing for them and they relied on earth's hot core ,so everything is normal there.
Some heat is still available in some places as the atmosphere retained some heat in those places.But this stored heat can only be there for 3-4 days.But now
After 7 days
Still there is extreme dark and the temperature is about minus 20 degree celsius and is decreasing drastically.At zero degrees water becomes ice and now the temperature is in negative. Water is not available in the form of liquid and also TVs,radios and internet are not working as they are operated by satellites which gain their power through solar panels from the sun.
Scientists for some days used the high power battery equipped in the satellite but as the batteries went down it all stopped as the Scientists never thought sun would disappear and never thought of any other alternative.
All the electricity is now gone as the dams which were used to produce electricity are now frozen and are not able to do anything.Still in some places electricity is there as they produce from other sources but that wont last long.Also mobile phone towers and landline are also not working because satellites are dead and no electricity available.The world connected by internet is now not working and people are dying to talk to their relatives who are far away.
Almost all the plants and trees are dead as there is no sun available to help them perform their usual photosynthesis process and also the animals eating the those plants are staring to die.
All the rich people in the world in these 7 days have built an underground basement for them to live and survive.Government also constructed some basements but they are not sufficient for all the population of the country.There is also a scarcity of food as crops cannot be grown in these conditions.Those peoples who had reserve foods survived for some days.Time doesn't make any sense now and whole 24 hrs is a night now.Darkness everywhere
After a month
Since there is no sun the earth does not rotate anymore and is now floating in space and has now reached some unknown destination in space.Temperature is going down and is now about -40 degrees and all the humans are almost dead.
All the surface water is frozen and now the earth looks something like the above picture.The whole life is finished except for one place which is the deep sea which is heated by earth's core.All the surface plants and animals are dead and are covered by snow.Except for some tree of arctic region almost all vegetation is dead. The air in the earth is much more polluted and also consists of much higher CO2 as there are no plants to filter the CO2 in atmosphere.
After an year
All the places where life could be alive is dead now and the earth looks like a white snowball.
The temperature went as down as -100 degrees and everything is under snow.Cities now look like the image above.
After 1000 years
1000 years have passed and now the earth has became a perfect sphere and is fully covered by ice.The current position of earth is not known and it has travelled a lot of distance by floating and is currently in some unknown galaxy floating here and there.Also other planets like mercury,jupiter,uranus are also millions of kilomters away and are in some unknown places.Here all the planets are randomly hit by some asteroids and destroy it more.
In the end the earth is hit by an high speed asteroid and is broken into small pieces and everything is finished even if this doesn't happen it can be swallowed by some black hole or remain in the space wandering.
Verdict
But guys dont worry this is just a hypothesis and nothing such wll happen.Its just a fictional story.But from this we come to know that how important sun is to earth and other solar system.Life is possible with the help of sun only and that's why it is given a place of god in hindu mythology.
