This reminds me of the red hyper giant Beteigeuze, they say that it moves around like a water baloon ; that is a sign that it will collapse into a black hole in a matter of tens of thousand of years ,leting out a gamma ray beam strong enough to effect earths Ecosystem but since it is rotating the opposite direction that are solar system is it won't effect us.

ursacke is right but srz what you say is bullcrap its not like a bigger object couses a wider orbit
-
well yes theya re unstable but not in this way xd they are unstable from the inside from outside they look just as stable as our sun xD
-
Yep, our sun is more stable!
Red giants and supergiants are not. :P
-
huh
-
any more videos like this? please please send me links
-
actually a professor showed this to me and my class, he said something like this took 6 months to simulate, if i remember correct.

Huh?

Is this a water balloon being shined on with a light?
this video stinks

if the sun gets bigger wouldnt we just have a longet time to go around it not necessarially get consumed by it. wouldnt we just have a different path around its gravitation? i think we would get pushed out instead of us staying in the same spot of the old gravitation and become consumed.

If the mass is the same, the size of the Sun has no effect on its gravitation. But you are right to say that as the Sun gets bigger, the orbit of the planets will move further out.
This is because the Sun is always losing mass, so its gravity is slowly dwindling. Some theories say that by the time it is a red-giant the Earth will be a "safe" distance as not to be consumed by it.

whats it about? is that what a red giant looks like? and does?

Yes, this is supposed to simulate a red giant over a process of several months. Unfortunately I am unable to find the original source for this one, but check Google for "red giant super computer simulation" for a bunch of similar videos.
