About The Sun
The Sun is a 4.5 billion-year-old yellow dwarf star, a hot glowing ball of hydrogen and helium, at the center of our solar system. It's about 93 million miles from Earth and our solar system's only star. Without its energy, life as we know it could not exist on Earth.

Radiating light and heat, sustaining life, providing energy, and controlling Earth's climate and weather patterns.
My simple pleasures
Witnessing the birth of new stars, the dance of the planets, and the awe-inspiring beauty of a solar eclipse.
