About 1,500 light years away lies the remnant of a star that was once like our own, and it’s providing astronomers with clues as to what might happen in our solar system after the sun dies.<\/p>\n

In roughly six billion years, after it has run out of energy, the sun will swell, enveloping Mercury, Venus, and possibly Earth. It will then leave behind a small, hot star,\u00a0slightly larger than Earth, known as a white dwarf.<\/p>\n

Astronomers have discovered an unusual pair: a white dwarf, called WDJ0914+1914, with a giant Neptune-like planet in its orbit. It is the first time such a large planet has been found in such a tight orbit around a white dwarf.<\/p>\n

But this star isn’t the life-giving companion our sun is to us;\u00a0it’s stripping away the giant planet’s atmosphere.<\/p>\n
