Detailed explanation-1: -Our Sun is an average sized star: there are smaller stars and larger stars, even up to 100 times larger. Many other solar systems have multiple suns, while ours just has one. Our Sun is 864, 000 miles in diameter and 10, 000 degrees Fahrenheit on the surface.
Detailed explanation-2: -They develop an understanding that stars vary in their size and distance from Earth. The sun is a medium size star that appears larger and brighter than other stars because it is closer to us.
Detailed explanation-3: -Our Sun is a 4.5 billion-year-old star – a hot glowing ball of hydrogen and helium at the center of our solar system. The Sun is about 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from Earth, and without its energy, life as we know it could not exist here on our home planet.
