Children and the Sun going nova
I was told this funny story about a 4th grade school teacher telling her class that the Sun would go nova in a few billion years destroying the Earth and everything on it. Several of her students gasped and asked "What would happen to them?". I have to confess that when I was young child and first read about the Sun's fate, the same thought crossed my mind.
It'd be nice to have the option of living for billions of years although I think few would exercise that option.
