    still has so much mass/fuel available that it turns into one of the densest things known to mankind, preventing even light from escaping.

    I don’t disagree with most of what you’ve said, but our sun will not be turning into a black hole. It would need something like 20x the mass it currently has.

      That’s correct, yeah, my apologies. I conflated it with supermassive stars/suns to make a point and didn’t clarify that it wont be happening to our sun, in particular.

      Thank you for the correction.
