Warwick Uni researchers predict the solar system's potential destruction by a white dwarf star's gravity.

Warwick Uni scientists forecast the solar system's demise in a new study, revealing that our solar system may be pulled into the gravity of a white dwarf star, crushed, and ground to dust when its host star becomes a white dwarf. This research sheds light on the impact of white dwarfs on planetary systems, showing that their immense gravity can rip small planetary bodies into smaller pieces, ultimately grinding them into dust.
