Solar Energy and Sun’s Mass Loss From Radiation
Einstein’s relativity implies a radiating body loses mass, so the Sun slowly diminishes as it emits energy. Bodler's calc suggests Earth year lengthens by six seconds per million years, with a 30 day seasonal retardation per million years, a tiny observable effect. More intense stellar radiation would amplify this shift, possibly affecting eclipses in systems like Algol over millennia. The Library of Congress catalog notes and partial references appear in the text.
