SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -Our Sun is a medium-sized star with a radius of about 435, 000 miles (700, 000 kilometers). Many stars are much larger – but the Sun is far more massive than our home planet: it would take more than 330, 000 Earths to match the mass of the Sun, and it would take 1.3 million Earths to fill the Sun’s volume.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Sun is a yellow dwarf star, which means it is a medium size star. It is believed to be over 4 billion years old. The Sun spins slowly on its axis as it revolves around the galaxy. The center, or core, of the Sun is very hot.

Detailed explanation-3: -Our sun is a medium star of average size and brightness. Our star, the sun, is average in terms of size and brightness. However, our star is extraordinarily important! Earth is the perfect distance from the sun. The sun provides heat and light to our planet, supporting life on Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Though sun is not the biggest or brightest star, it appears so because it is the nearest star from us. Since the distance is very less, it appears bigger and brighter. As the distance of other stars from us increases, their brightness and size appears to be less.

Detailed explanation-5: -Stars range in size from neutron stars, which can be only 12 miles (20 kilometers) wide, to supergiants roughly 1, 000 times the diameter of the sun. The size of a star affects its brightness.

Detailed explanation-6: -The Sun is a star. There are lots of stars in the universe, but the Sun is the closest one to Earth, and it’s the only one in our solar system. It is the center of our solar system. The Sun is a hot ball of glowing gases.
