What Will Alpha Centauri Look Like In 4.5 Billion Years?
Alpha Centauri is the closest star to our solar system. It is currently known that exoplanets are orbiting this star, and it will be much closer in the future, so it could be humanity's future home when the Sun has died in 4.5 billion years.
So, what would Alpha Centauri look like in the future? What will the stars look like? Will it continue at the same distance from the Sun?
Stay with us to find out!
The future of Alfa Centauri
Alpha Centauri is a star system of 3 stars: Alpha Centauri A, also called Rigil Kentaurus, Alfa Centauri B, also known as Toliman, and Proxima Centauri.
Kentaurus is the system's central star; this star has 1.1 times the mass of the Sun and 1.5 times its luminosity. Toliman is the second most prominent star in the system since it only has 0.9 of the mass of the Sun.
Interstellar neighbors
Thanks to new astronomical observation technologies such as large observatories and space telescopes such as the James Webb, we have managed to detect signals that indicate that the stars that make up the Alpha Centauri star system host exoplanets.
The end or the beginning
Before the Sun dies in 4.5 billion years, humanity will have to move to another star so as not to perish along with the rest of the solar system. To achieve this, the migration of the human race may begin much earlier, perhaps at a time when Alpha Centauri is still close to the Sun.
