We might be completely wrong about the lifespan of our Sun

In a recent study published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, researchers suggest that stellar magnetism could be far more common across stars than previously believed. By analyzing a broad set of stellar data, the team found magnetic fields may play a larger role in star formation, evolution, and activity cycles than we thought. If magnetism is widespread, it could reshape how we interpret stellar lifecycles and the dynamics of galaxies. This work prompts a shift in how astronomers search for and study magnetic fields in the cosmos.
