Why not just make the Sun immortal lol
It's possible with our current tech.

Extraordinarily expensive, but we could theoretically do it without inventing anything groundbreaking.
tbf i feel this applies to basically all of space-everything, we can do it with current technology, it'd just be a project the likes of which has never been even remotely considered before, probably taking hundreds of generations to start making progress on.
We just need to start working when there are obvious signs of problem, not something gradual that is too subtle, the sun has to start blinking or for us to catch the message.
I'm sure if we just turn it off and then turn it back on again, it'll be fine for another couple billion years.
