💁🏻♀️ TIL: ☀️🌍 For decades, scientists assumed #Earth would spiral into the #Sun when it swells into a red giant billions of years from now.
A new study flips that prediction. Better modeling of tidal dissipation inside dying #stars finds that the Sun’s mass loss from stellar wind may push Earth outward, potentially saving it from incineration.
