yes life does exist without sulight. For a long time scientists believed that life depended on sunlight for energy. Then in 1978 a submarine dived to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Althought there was no sunlight they found tube worms, clams and crabs and other life forms. These were living on the energy which is inside the Earth, the geothermal heat. ;)
No, humans cannot survive without the sun. Sunlight provides essential vitamin D, regulates our circadian rhythm, and supports plant life which forms the base of the food chain. Without the sun, Earth would be dark, cold, and lifeless.
No... plants need the sun, plants give out oxygen in which we breath
no sun > no plants > no oxygen > no humans > no life
No
And nothing for a planet to orbit...
Yet science is finding ways to blur the edges of our understanding. Apparently, not all energy is derived from the sun after all. According to the 1st site below, recently discovered..."photosynthetic bacteria may get all the light they need for metabolism from the dim radiation emitted by deep-sea hydrothermal vents. ...suggesting the possibility of life in other sunless environments, such as Jupiter's moon Europa."

The sun warms the earth and provides energy to plants. Life would not continue on the earth without the sun. People can leave the earth in self-contained environments and survive for short periods of time without needing the sun. People may be able, in the future, to leave the solar system to visit another stellar system. Those people could live without the sun--but they would only be trading our sun for another.
Absolutely. Large colonies of bacteria and ocean tube worms living near undersea black smoker geothermal vents, live off the heat and chemical energy in the effluent of these vents. No sunlight makes it to this depth in the ocean. This is only one example of many.

Can you live on the sun?
No, it is not possible for humans to live on the sun. The sun's surface temperature is around 5500 degrees Celsius, which is far too hot for any form of life as we know it to survive. Additionally, the sun's atmosphere does not contain the necessary elements to support life.

Can you live without the sun or moon?
No. It would be impossible. The moon doesn't matter that much but the sun does. The sun is what keeps plants alive which gives us oxygen. The sun also gives us warmth and keeps us from freezing to death. I hope this helps. Give me a trust point please if it does!

Why is the sun immportant to the Milky way.Could you live without the sun?
As one of perhaps 200 to 400 billion stars in the Milky Way, the sun has no influencewhatsoever on the galaxy, and would make absolutely no difference in it if it were todisappear.We, however, would never have appeared without the sun, and couldn't live long without it.
Can black-eyed peas live without sun?
peas need sun to grow big and strong.
Would you able to live without the sun?
No you wouldn't be able to live without the sun and from what i have read on astrobiology and the like i don't believe intelligent or complex life could even develop or survive with another type of sun or on a planet which is not the right distance zone towards or from the sun.
Could plants animals or humans live on earth without the sun?

Why are stars useful to man?
