Re: Planetary shields will buckle under stellar winds from their dying stars
Surviving the destruction of the magnetosphere and the loss of atmosphere appears almost impossible.
Likewise, expecting new life to form when the sun is in white dwarfdom seems rather remote.
Better hope that humans have moved out to a point beyond the orbit of Neptune.
I suppose we could figure out how to move Europa and then terraform it so we might have a habitat.
