Actually no. This is a common misconception. The sun is actually a planet. Stars are the little white dots you see in the sky at night. The sun is about 20 times bigger than the stars, plus it's yellow not white. And you're very special keep it up!

Yes, most assuredly, thankfully not as large or as hot or near as many stars to some planets, therefore allowing life here to exist. Ultimetly , in a few billion years destined to burn out.
Just hope you're not around then, ha.
A good source of info on such is the "Universe" series, abut our earth, sun, and planets on the "History Channel". Fabulous.

Our sun is one of billions of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. There are Billions of Galaxies in the universe. Needless to say, the Universe is a very large place.
