The Sun is a giant ball of hot gas made mostly of hydrogen and helium. It’s super hot inside—millions of degrees! Because it’s so hot, the Sun makes a lot of energy by squeezing atoms together (that’s called nuclear fusion).
This energy from the Sun travels through space as light and heat. That’s why the Sun lights up our days and keeps Earth warm enough for plants, animals, and people to live.
The Sun is the biggest thing in our solar system. All the planets, including Earth, move around it because the Sun’s gravity pulls them close.
Without the Sun, there would be no life on Earth. It’s like a giant, glowing fireball that gives us everything we need to live! The Sun is so big that about 1 million Earths could fit inside it! It’s really heavy and very powerful.
Inside the Sun, the super hot gases are always moving and mixing. The Sun’s energy doesn’t only give us light and heat—it also helps make the weather and gives plants the power to grow through something called photosynthesis.
The Sun has been shining for billions of years and will keep shining for a very long time.
It’s like the boss of our solar system, keeping everything moving and alive! ☀️🌟
