Earth Falls Into the Sun

Earth is already falling toward the Sun—it simply moves sideways fast enough to keep missing it.

But if Earth suddenly lost its orbital velocity, that balance would collapse. Our planet would spiral toward the Sun as temperatures climbed, oceans evaporated, and the solar system’s familiar order broke apart.

A science-grounded astronomical thought experiment exploring Earth’s final fall.
