If the Sun suddenly disappeared, the effects on the Solar System and Earth would be profound and catastrophic. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what would happen:

Immediate Effect:

8-Minute Delay: We wouldn’t notice the Sun's disappearance immediately because light from the Sun takes about 8 minutes to reach Earth. We would continue to see sunlight and receive solar radiation for about 8 minutes after the Sun vanished.
Gravitational Impact:

Loss of Gravity: The Sun's gravitational pull keeps the planets, including Earth, in orbit. If the Sun disappeared, this gravitational force would vanish instantly. Planets, moons, and other objects in the Solar System would no longer be held in their orbits and would drift off in straight lines tangentially to their previous orbits, following Newton’s First Law of Motion.
Immediate Darkness:

Loss of Light: After the 8-minute delay, Earth would plunge into complete darkness, except for light from distant stars and galaxies. The absence of sunlight would mean no photosynthesis, leading to the death of plants and disruption of the food chain.
Temperature Drop:

Rapid Cooling: Without the Sun’s heat, Earth’s surface temperature would plummet. Within a week, the average temperature would drop to around -73°C (-100°F). In a year, it could fall to about -200°C (-328°F). The atmosphere would gradually freeze and fall to the surface, creating a cold, dense layer of gases.
Ocean Freezing:

Surface Freezing: The oceans would start to freeze from the surface downwards. Within a few years, the oceans could be covered with a thick ice layer, though the deep ocean could remain liquid for a longer period due to geothermal heat.
Long-Term Effects:

Life on Earth: Life on Earth would struggle to survive. Surface life would be severely impacted, with plants and animals dying off quickly due to the lack of sunlight and temperature drop. Some microorganisms and extremophiles might survive for a while, particularly in the deep ocean or in geothermal environments, but overall, life would face extinction.
Atmospheric Changes: As the atmosphere freezes and falls to the surface, Earth would gradually lose its air. This could lead to a further loss of the atmosphere over time.
Cosmic Drift:

Drifting into Space: Earth, along with the other planets and objects in the Solar System, would drift off into interstellar space. Without the Sun’s gravity to anchor us, the entire Solar System would become a wandering collection of objects moving through space.
In summary, the sudden disappearance of the Sun would lead to immediate and severe consequences: darkness, extreme cold, loss of life, and the disintegration of the Solar System. The Earth and other planets would drift aimlessly through the galaxy, with their orbits and gravitational interactions fundamentally altered.
