Ok so here it is will the world end or is it just a bunch of junk written by some old Aztecs. I do not think it will end but I would like other peoples input. This is a friendly place to post your statement no religious battles or anything like that. Thank you.
The first part matches what I've read, that when getting older the sun grows before it collapses again, and I don't rememebr how big it might grow but earth will definitely be engulfed by the sun. But is it enough to make a supernova? Or, put in another way, is the supernova part of the 'regular' star aging cycle, or would that, as I remember it, only consist of growing and collapsing to a brown dwarf?
The sun will grow bigger as it gets older and it will engulf Mercury, Venus, and Earth. then it will cast off it's outer layers in a Planetary Nebulae and become a White Dwarf.

Its too small in MASS not Diamiter. You are confusing diamiter with mass. you need Weight not volume.
Let me make that clear, think of the sun as a Lead ball. eventually it will expand to be the size of a pillow with the density of a pillow thus not needing more mass to expand. Do some research on the life cycle of our sun.
