  • Fate of Outer Planets in the Sun's Red-giant Phase

    From [email protected]@21:1/5 to All on Fri Apr 10 16:56:39 2020
    In a number of documentaries i've watched over the years when
    discussing the fate of the inner terrestrial-planets when the Sun
    enters its' red-giant phase it usually only talks about Mercury,
    Venus and Earth with Mars mentioned occasionally but almost never
    are the outer-planets mentioned.

    When the sun enters its' red-giant phase there will be a massive
    increase in its luminosity so i'm if for example any of Jupiter's
    atmosphere will be stripped off by the massive increase in the
    solar radiation it receives?
