What will happen if the sun were to just disappear?

I will dread to see that happen. If the sun were to just mysteriously disappear, it would mean total darkness. Although not immediately since it takes almost nine minutes for sun rays to reach our planet earth. Further more, the sun is like this mass of gravity that holds the planets revolving around it. So if the sun just disappeared, earth and other planets will probably bounce somewhere into space. 

It is also safe to say that it would be mass extinction if the sun just vanished. If every living thing doesn't freeze to death from extreme drop in temperature, we would starve to death. The sun is the central system where all energy comes from. Photosynthesis would have long seized. Plants won't be able to use up sunlight to produce food. They'd die. This means all secondary consumers including man will have nothing to feed on and would subsequently die off.

Sun supports life on earth. We are alive because of sun. If the sun goes away or disappears suddenly, we all will freeze to death. No life will be able to live on this earth. Scientists say that the present position of the earth from the sun is the correct one. Had the earth been still away or closer to the sun, no life would exist.

If there is no sun in our environment in future then there is a lot of problems which is not only to humans also for plants and animals like--

* Survivors would need to find a way to raise plants and animals in this condition to live.

* The average surface temperature of the earth would drop below 0 degrees Fahrenheit in less than a week.

* Solar panels would quickly become without sunlight to generate electricity.

If the sun were to suddenly disappear, it would have catastrophic effects on life on earth. Without the sun's energy, the Earth's temperature would rapidly drop, and all photosynthesis would cease. As a result, plants and other life forms would die off, leading to mass extinctions. In addition, without the sun's light, it would be dark all the time and most animals would struggle to survive. The lack of sunlight would also drastically reduce the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere, making it difficult for humans and other animals to breathe. Ultimately, the Earth would become an uninhabitable place without the sun's energy.

If the sun were to suddenly disappear, it would have catastrophic effects on our planet. All of the plants and animals on Earth would die, as they rely on the sun for energy to survive. Without the sun, Earth would freeze, and the water in the oceans and atmosphere would evaporate. Without the sun's gravity, Earth would eventually be sent hurtling out of the solar system.

With no sunlight, photosynthesis would stop, but that would only kill some of the plants—there are some larger trees that can survive for decades without it. Within a few days, however, the temperatures would begin to drop, and any humans left on the planet's surface would die soon after.

If the sun were to suddenly go out, all life on Earth would perish as the planet would rapidly cool down and become uninhabitable. The sun going out is an unlikely scenario, however, as it is expected to continue shining for another 5 billion years before running out of fuel.
