Detailed explanation-1: -The Sun is the only star in our solar system. It is the center of our solar system, and its gravity holds the solar system together. Everything in our solar system revolves around it – the planets, asteroids, comets, and tiny bits of space debris.
Detailed explanation-2: -It’s actually just outside the sun’s surface! Our entire solar system also has a barycenter. The sun, Earth, and all of the planets in the solar system orbit around this barycenter. It is the center of mass of every object in the solar system combined.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the case of our solar system, most of the initial interstellar mass helped form the sun. The portion of the mass with the most angular momentum remained in a disk, which then orbited the sun. We believe that the planets formed out of this disk, and therefore the sun is naturally found at the center of this event.
Detailed explanation-4: -False, the moon orbits earth which orbits the sun. The sun is the centre of our solar system.
