What If: The Sun did not come up tomorrow.

Exactly. we orbit around the sun. For the sun not to "come up" either
(a) the sun has disappeared, exploded or been converted into a black hole
(b) the Earth's rotation has been stilled.

On the bright side, we can drop the SETI@Home work since none of the above will happen naturally until hundreds of millions of years from now. We can also drop it because we'll all be dead soon, but every silver lining has a cloud.

Alright,,, lets say that the Sun dissappeared and we find out self with no sun on the next rotation.

We'd know about it long before then - the entire nation of China would scream out in horror and probably nuke us for turning off the sun. Or something.

We could forget about the problem of Global Warming 🙂

If you like to ski or snowboard, you might have some good times before the Earth cools enough to kill us all.

I'd be calling Vin Diesel myself, god knows he'd finally be of some use to us.
