What is the next major evolutionary phase the Sun is expected to enter after it exhausts the hydrogen fuel in its core?

💡 Explanation:

When the Sun runs out of hydrogen fuel in its core, it will begin fusing helium, causing its outer layers to expand dramatically and cool, transforming the Sun into a Red Giant star before eventually collapsing into a White Dwarf. Neutron stars and black holes are formed only from the collapse of much more massive stars.
