did the sun blow up yet?

No.

(You’d know.)

SUN STATUS: OPERATIONAL

Last checked: just now

Time without incident: 4,600,000,000 years and counting

Note: Light from the Sun takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to reach Earth. In the event of detonation, this page would keep displaying “No” for roughly 8 more minutes out of sheer optimism. You’d find out around the same time we would. Monitored 24/7 by absolutely no one.
