Answer 2

The Sun is the star at the center of our solar system. The Earth and other matter (including other planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets and dust) orbit the Sun, which by itself accounts for more than 99% of the solar system's mass. Energy from the Sun—in the form of sunlight, supports almost all life on Earth via photosynthesis, and, via heating from insolation—drives the Earth's climate and weather.

About 74% of the Sun's mass is hydrogen, 25% is helium, and the rest is made up of trace quantities of heavier elements. The Sun is about 4.6 billion years old and is about halfway through its main-sequence evolution, during which nuclear fusion reactions in its core fuse hydrogen into helium. Each second, more than 4 million tonnes of matter are converted into energy within the Sun's core, producing neutrinos and solar radiation. In about 5 billion years, the Sun will evolve into a red giant and then a white dwarf, creating a planetary nebula in the process.

Answer 3

If I may be so bold as to assume by your question that you are blind. Honestly, I don't know that there is an answer from anyone that could describe what it looks like so that a none seeing person could understand. It's like how none of us could ever truely imagine heaven because we,ve never been there.

I closed my eyes to try and figure out another way to describe the sun, or even light, but I am so dependant on my eyes that I couldn't even begin to figure out how to describe it.

All I can say is that you will see it one day.

The Sun is a magnetically active star; it supports a strong, changing magnetic field that varies year-to-year and reverses direction about every eleven years. The Sun's magnetic field gives rise to many effects that are collectively called solar activity, including sunspots on the surface of the Sun, solar flares, and variations in the solar wind that carry material through the solar system. The effects of solar activity on Earth include auroras at moderate to high latitudes, and the disruption of radio communications and electric power. Solar activity is thought to have played a large role in the formation and evolution of the solar system, and strongly affects the structure of Earth's outer atmosphere.

Although it is the nearest star to Earth and has been intensively studied by scientists, many questions about the Sun remain unanswered, such as why its outer atmosphere has a temperature of over a million K while its visible surface (the photosphere) has a temperature of just 6,000 K. Current topics of scientific enquiry include the sun's regular cycle of sunspot activity, the physics and origin of solar flares and prominences, the magnetic interaction between the chromosphere and the corona, and the origin of the solar wind.

Answer 5

Sun is a planet that is symbolic of a noble character of giving without expecting. It is the source of all life, giving light, warmth, form. All other planets move around the sun as if it is the center of the universe. Just as the king of the beast, lion. In mysticism, it's like the Divine God.

Answer 6

I would describe sun as power, heat, life and light. Sun is like the life force.

Answer 7

The sun is the closest star to earth. It is actually a star and according to some books, it is not as big as most stars out there and it is of relatively star median age. :)

Answer 8

Great Ball of Fiery Gas

Answer 9

Sun is one of God's creation for the benefits of mankind. Be grateful to God for it. Without Son of God (Jesus) our souls are in darkness.

In the Beginning God created heavens and earth.
God gives you air to breathe and sunshine to enjoy.
God gives you water to drink and food to eat.
God gives you a wonderful body and sound mind, to live.
God loves you, and you are precious to Him.
Son of God died on the Cross to save us from condemnation.
Jesus’ love is boundless and everlasting.
We have the hope of Heaven through Jesus.
Life therefore has fantastic and glorious future!

Answer 10

Listen to The Beatles song "Sun King". It will explain it all.

Answer 11

Sun is the one that lights up your whole world..Sun is a big ball of fire...
