How Much Water Would Extinguish The Sun?

The fusion of two nuclei with lower masses than iron (which, along with nickel, has the largest binding energy per nucleon) generally releases energy, while the fusion of nuclei heavier than iron absorbs energy. The opposite is true for the reverse process, nuclear fission. Does this mean that if we dumped a large enough volume of lead or heavier metal on the sun it would damp the reaction and 'put it out'

You're welcome. :) Also, best way is just to remove the gravity. ;) Turn on those anti-grav beams and it should do it.
