Detailed explanation-1: -The temperature at the surface of the Sun is about 10, 000 Fahrenheit (5, 600 Celsius). The temperature rises from the surface of the Sun inward towards the very hot center of the Sun where it reaches about 27, 000, 000 Fahrenheit (15, 000, 000 Celsius).
Detailed explanation-2: -The sun’s surface is blisteringly hot at 10, 340 degrees Fahrenheit–but its atmosphere is another 300 times hotter. This has led to an enduring mystery for those who study the sun: What heats the atmosphere to such extreme temperatures?
Detailed explanation-3: -The surface of the Sun is hot-over 5500 degrees Celsius (which is nearly 10, 000 degrees Fahrenheit .
Detailed explanation-4: -The temperature of the sun varies from around 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million degrees Celsius) at the core to only about 10, 000 degrees F (5, 500 degrees C) at the surface, according to NASA (opens in new tab).
