The closest star to Earth Rotating once every 27 days.
The Sun formed over four and a half billion years ago and it will keep shining for at least
another five billion years.
The Sun’s surface is called the photosphere. The temperature of the photosphere is around
10,000° Fahrenheit. The temperature at the core of the Sun, is about 27 million° Fahrenheit.
The Sun’s diameter is about 870,000 miles wide That makes it 109 times wider than Earth,
making it 333,000 times heavier. The Sun is only one of over 100 billion stars.
Over one million Earths could fit inside the Sun.
A supergiant star can get to be 400 times larger than our Sun, which is almost a million miles
in diameter. With no Sun, Earth could not support life.
The Sun gives off heat and light that the Earth needs to support life, including us humans.
A spacecraft, would have to travel in excess of 618 kilometers per second to escape the
Sun’s gravitational pull.
Sun loops are large loops caused by the Sun’s magma shooting off of the Sun’s
surface. These loops can fly millions of miles into space...
The Sun is made out of 92% hydrogen, 7% helium and the rest is other low
number gasses? The Sun’s core is 27 billion° Fahrenheit.
If the Sun was hollow, you could fit 333,000 Earths inside!
