Might there be Life on the sun?

Question

Would it be possible that there is life on the sun?Think about it, A creature that is so cold that when its on the sun it is warm, Am I getting somewhere or is this a useless thought which will never be anything investigated?Imagine it,Humans have never been on the sun so how do they no theres no life on the sun?Please answer this, I am confused.

Answer 1

Absolutely no chance.

The sun is composed nearly entirely of hydrogen and helium.

Many more components are crucial to the creation of life as we know it to form the nucelic acids (DNA & RNA, etc) or proteins.

Take into account the massive heat and the chances are zero.

Answer 2

No, Never.

Answer 3

There might be.  It wouldn't be life as we know it, and there's a good chance we could look right at it and never know what we were looking at, but it is possible.  

Answer 4

  They would sure be some hot babes.

Answer 5

You know what? life has got its principles like adaptivity,conducive,means of living in a creatures body like respiration,digestion,heat control and cold control but as we can see the sun is nothing but heat caused by several nuclear reaction which for real can,t support life maybe when the hydrogen that keep it burn exhaust maybe it will cool and life will exist.but for our general knowledge now Life can't exist on the sun  

Answer 6

No. There is no possible way for there to be any life on the sun, and this is why.

First of all, the sun isn't on *fire*. Its actually a ball of exploding gas... more specifically, a big ball of nuclear fusion. All these different elements are exploding, hydrogen is being converted into helium, its really a crazy, hellish environment on the sun. Given this, we know that there is absolutely no way that any life could possible exist on the sun. The sun is not solid... its plasma. The sun has no solid surface except at the core, and even there its pretty soft because the sun is so hot. So where would this life, well, live? There is really no place there for it.

If that isn't enough, the gravitational pull from the sun would squash them like a bug. If a house was put onto the sun, even if it wasn't hot, and there were no explosions, it would be instantly crushed by the gravity. The gravity is so strong that its holding onto 8 planets.

We know there's no life on objects like the sun through deductive reasoning. We look at the life on Earth and compare the conditions here to the conditions on other planets, moons, or asteroids. So far, none of the organisms we have observed could possible live on Venus, which is just volcanic, much less a giant ball of exploding gases.  

Answer 7

not possible, the sun isn't solid its a giant ball of gas.

Answer 8

No.

Answer 9

no. its too hot...the sun is a ball of watery fire. its burning

Answer 10

The sun is a huge nuclear reactor!  No carbon or any other based life form could possibly live even close to the sun.  Basically the sun is an on going vast hydrogen bomb going off continuously.

Answer 11

Ho mann, no no no nothing can survive on a violent hot object.

Answer 12

Well if they were so cold they would quickly warm up and die. They would not be able to maintain there cool temperature... you don't see snakes and bugs in the desert with a temperature of 35* F do you.

I'm not going to say life on the Sun is impossible... but I will say life as we no it could not exist on the sun. The energy any where near the Sun would be enough to rip the chemical bonds that hold us togethor apart. Now, there might be some crazy form of life on the Sun. All life is is a self replicating system that changes with time. Maybe there are formations of hydrogen and helium around the Sun's surface that produce similar formations and change with every generation... like us. I have read little parts of the online science fiction story Orion's Arm and they have come up with a bunch of unique ways life can survive... even in Neutron stars as tiny little sentient knots of neutrons.

Answer 13

Imagine yourself in a pool of lava and liquid fire. Thats what it would be like living on the sun, now do you really think something would survive on the sun or are you just being funny.

Answer 14

That depends on what definition of life you're talking about. By the standard definition e.g. biological in the sense that we currently understand it, no.

However, with the discovery of helical formations in the cosmos it opens the question as to what life can be defined as. Who's to say some kind of life can't form in space. Even though it may not be a form recognizable to us, that doesn't mean the processes for building some kind of sentience in even the most extreme of conditions in the universe are out of the question.

What about other dimensions? What what forms does life take there? Does the Sun also exist in those dimensions? If so, is it still hot?

When talking about cosmic possibilities, nothing is completely out of the question.

Answer 15

Nope, nothing can live on the sun ever.

Answer 16

its not science, but its fun.

make it the premise to a story and write it.

its been done before...  most recently in "42" a Dr Who episode, but there's ALWAYS room for Jell-O!  I mean new twists on old stories.... look at Romeo & Juliette... Old Will ripped off a much used plot and look what he did with it!

post it and send me an email

Answer 17

Read the book 2001 A Space Odyssey, not the movie. For the storyline, it explains what "solarians" might be like. You'll find it later in the book. For real, though, even the coolest part of the sun, the photosphere, is above the critical temp for molecules to exist. Either the matter is forever separate atoms or plasma (ions period). Life needs compounds to exist and persist. The sun just can't supply that environment.
