- The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is almost perfectly spherical and consists of hot plasma interwoven with magnetic fields. It has a diameter of about 1,392,684 km (865,374 mi), around 109 times that of Earth, and its mass (1.989×1030 kilograms, approximately 330,000 times the mass of Earth) accounts for about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System. Chemically, about three quarters of the Sun's mass consists of hydrogen, while the rest is mostly helium. The remainder (1.69%, which nonetheless equals 5,600 times the mass of Earth) consists of heavier elements, including oxygen, carbon, neon and iron, among others.

- The Sun represents will, authority, and what you would be if you were able to "shine" unfettered by fears, material constraints, memories, people or other limitations. It is the prime indicator of who we are, what we want to become, and why we came here. Aspects to the Sun represent how our original will is modified by other factors. The house of the Sun shows the area of life in which we find the most opportunity to "shine". The Sun sign indicates the true personality, but not necessarily how the native appears or acts, or even their self image. In the birth chart, the Sun gives indicators as to the native's father and male figures in relationships. However, despite being mirrored in male authority figures, the nature of the Sun is more like a child in that it represents the source of cre

- Sun ist der verzogene Herrscher vom Drachenkaiserland. Er ist zwar erst zwölf Jahre alt, jedoch regiert er ohne Gnade, und setzt seinen Kopf immer durch, auch gegen seine acht Jahre ältere Schwester Aya. Er wurde nur zum Drachenkaiser ernannt, weil Aya zu dem Zeitpunkt, wo seine Eltern starben, krank war, und so die Thronfolge nicht antreten konnte. Seine Untergebenen behandelt er wie Dreck, und sein Verhalten ändert sich erst, nachdem Kathy und Ashka ankommen.
- As the source of all life and growth on Earth, the Sun is the Universal Savior and King of Heaven. It is the original "dying-and-rising god" seen in many religions including Christianity and Zoroastrianism, and its role as the governor of the seasons means that its myths are often personifications of these natural cycles. For example, the "solar Christ" was a very popular theory in the 19th and early 20th centuries, though it has since fallen out of favor among biblical scholars (however there does exist a persistent "mysticist" stream, represented by such writers as Acharya S.). The Sun was the first of the seven Ptolemaic 'planets' (from Gr. planetese, 'wanderer'), and was equated with gold, one of the seven metals of Egypt (presumably also of the Ptolemaic period). The Sun is man, summe
- Type-8830, codenamed "Sun," (サン) is a boss in The House of the Dead III. The Sun is encountered in the Bio Lab level; depending on which path you take, this can be either stage 2, 3, or 4. It rises up like a tree and uses tentacles to attack. The attacking vine tentacles faced in the Bio Plant level may have been its own. The strange thing about this boss is that it contains 3 weak points: one being the "tentacles" or vines that it uses to attack you, the second being a strange ring of human faces that go all the way around the plant, and the third which only appears halfway through the battle. It opens up giant petals that are above the ring of human faces, and in each flower is a strange snake-like or worm-like protrusion. It is large, has slimy red flesh, squinting eyes, and has spike-l
- The surface of the Sun consists of hydrogen (about 74% of its mass, or 92% of its volume), helium (about 24% of mass, 7% of volume), and trace quantities of other elements, including iron, nickel, oxygen, silicon, sulfur, magnesium, carbon, neon, calcium, and chromium. The Sun has a spectral class of G2V. G2 means that it has a surface temperature of approximately 5,780 K (5,500 C) giving it a white color that often, because of atmospheric scattering, appears yellow when seen from the surface of the Earth. This is a subtractive effect, as the preferential scattering of shorter wavelength light removes enough violet and blue light, leaving a range of frequencies that is perceived by the human eye as yellow. It is this scattering of light at the blue end of the spectrum that gives the surrou
- Nobody can go to the Sun because it's too hot for visitors! Asteroids(minor planets), comets, planets, meteroids and dwarf planets orbit the Sun, one of the planets orbiting it is Earth! The Earth's approximate distance from the Sun is 1 Astronomical Unit (AU) or (149.9 million km) that is why life and water exist on the planet. Over billions of years ago, the Earth was much closer to the Sun than now so no life survived there, then the Sun got bigger (see: solar life cycle) and the planets moved out and created their own orbital paths around it. The atmosphere and surface of our planet cooled and condensed to form the crust and rivers and oceans started appearing, and then life formed!
- Sun The Sun (Latin: Sol), a yellow dwarf, is the star at the center of the Solar System. The Earth and other matter (including other planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets, and dust) orbit the Sun,[9] which by itself accounts for about 98.6% of the Solar System's mass. The mean distance of the Sun from the Earth is approximately 149,600,000 kilometers, or 92,960,000 miles, and its light travels this distance in 8 minutes and 19 seconds. Energy from the Sun, in the form of sunlight, supports almost all life on Earth via photosynthesis,[10] and drives the Earth's climate and weather. Terminology
- The Sun is the star around which our Earth revolves. It is the source of light, and thus the day is determined by the rotation of the Earth on its axis, putting any spot on the Earth's surface (between the Arctic Circle and Antarctic Circle alternately in the lighted area and the unlighted area. (North of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle, there are times of the year when this alternation does not occur; thise areas have periods when there is light all through the day and others when there is darkness all through the day.) (But see sidereal day, which is differently defined.)
- Sun is a song from Silent Hill 3 and is track 22 in the Silent Hill 3 soundtrack. It is a collection of the teachings held by the Order about God's creation and humanity's salvation. In Silent Hill 3, Heather Mason comes across paintings hung in the church that accompany the separate myths. In it, there is also mention of the two angels Xuchilbara and Lobsel Vith, other key figures in the Silent Hill mythos. The lyrics to the song are a summary of the memos related to these key figures and are read by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn.
- The Sun is the star of our solar system. Around it gravitate the Earth, seven more planets, three dwarf planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets and dust. Despite the large amount of objects orbiting around it, the Sun accounts for over 99% of the total mass of the solar system. Without the energy it irradiates, life on Earth would be impossible. Part of the Milky Way, the Sun is 15 parsecs from the equatorial plane of the galaxy, and approximately 8600 parsecs from the galactic core.
- In most of the works of Harry Turtledove, the Sun is exactly the same body and performs the exact same functions. Certainly, no story has been set on the Sun. In nearly all Turtledove works, the Sun is orbited by eight planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, plus the dwarf planet Pluto. In A World of Difference, Minerva replaces Mars. The sun plays an indirect role in the story "But It Does Move", which is a story about Galileo Galilei's advocacy for the heliocentric model of our solar system.
- Ruinstone looked to Aquaflow. "There is something different about that cat..." "Frost seems like a name that fits her, it seems she likes the cold, and water." Aquaflow pointed out. Nicky padded up. "We need to worry more about Josie, she's going to have my kit's very soon." Ruinstone nodded. "I guess you're right Nicky, we'll worry about Frost later..." Nicky smiled and purred. Aquaflow padded over to him. "C'mon Nicky, I'll come with you to check on Josie." "Thanks." He meowed. The two padded away. Just like Saddie said... Ruinstone thought. Sighing he padded away.

- Two ten-years have passed since I rose to lead the Fifth Water Column. Our designated route leaving John’s Crevasse near Bal-Biliad took us straight Seaward and then east through the driest regions of this parched land. Twenty times have I overseen the filling of the great urns during the annual flood of John’s Crevasse, and twenty times have I returned with them empty. As the Column’s Pacesetter, I have been responsible for the well-being of the Zhuman Empire’s citizens settled along the Fifth Route, and have organised the defence against countless raiders, arbitrated disputes between settlements, maintained roads, collected taxes and tithes, and watched with joy as they prospered under my hand.
- The Sun (known as Sol) is the star at the center of the solar system. It functions similarly as to its real-life counterpart, providing heat and light to the beings of Earth. In the Dr. Slump series, it is shown as a living being with a face, which is not carried over to its appearances in the Dragon Ball series. The Sun has a minor role in several of the Dragon Ball movies; in "Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle", Lucifer wanted to get rid of the sun so he could take over the Earth, and Cooler (in Cooler's Revenge), Broly (in Broly: Second Coming) and Baby (in Dragon Ball GT) were all defeated by being blasted into the Sun.
- As part of the formation of their fleet in Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan, the Guardians of World Peace created a mecha known as Sun Vulcan Robo to combat against the giant Monger created by the Machine Empire Black Magma, with it empowered by the solar power of the sun. During the final battle of the series, a solar eclipse occurs during Sun Vulcan Robo's final battle with Black Magma's mecha, King Magmar, making it lose power. The team is forced to withstand attack until the eclipse ends and an aurora at the North Pole recharges it to allow for King Magmar's defeat.Final Ep.: Shine, North Pole Aurora
- The Sun is the yellow star found in the center of the Solar System - a star system in Orion Nebula on the arm of the galaxy people of Earth named "Milky Way." Like some of the star systems, the Sun have no other star within its gravitational pull. The star is consisted mainly of hydrogen and helium, though other elements may be found as a byproduct of the star's natural nuclear fusion. Prior to, and what led to, the Comet Empire conflict, a stray missiles from the Galmon empire drove itself into the Sun and cause a catalytic disturbance with the Sun's fusion pattern. This resulted the Sun slowly turning into a hot red giant star that will vanquish all life on Earth in one year and will turn into a supernova in three. But with the help of planet Gratiana's advance weaponry given to the Yama
- The Sun's spectrum contains lines of ionized and neutral metals as well as very weak hydrogen lines. The V (Roman five) in the spectral class indicates that the Sun, like most stars, is a main sequence star. This means that it generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. There are more than 100 million G2 class stars in our galaxy. Once regarded as a small and relatively insignificant star, the Sun is now known to be brighter than 85% of the stars in the galaxy, most of which are red dwarfs.
- The sun is a major celestial body which the Earth orbits around in its solar system. The book of Genesis in the Bible calls it "the greater light" which God had created in the beginning when He created the heavens and the earth.

It is large, has slimy red flesh, squinting eyes, and has spike-like teeth. One form of this protrusion's attack is to directly come out and spit its seeds at close-range with the player. Another form is to spit out a barrage of sharp objects similar to large dandelion seeds into the air above the player. These must be shot to avoid taking damage. The most damage is done when the large protrusion is shot directly. Once defeated, the Sun will collapse into a pile of petals and branches, and the agents will be able to continue their mission.

Humans like to call their star "the Sun," but the word "sun" can also apply to any star with a planetary system. Such systems are typically composed of planets, asteroids, and giant eggs that look like asteroids. Since Transformers typically spend their time on planets, suns are much more common in their adventures than bare stars.

- Sun is a song from Silent Hill 3 and is track 22 in the Silent Hill 3 soundtrack. It is a collection of the teachings held by the Order about God's creation and humanity's salvation. In Silent Hill 3, Heather Mason comes across paintings hung in the church that accompany the separate myths. In it, there is also mention of the two angels Xuchilbara and Lobsel Vith, other key figures in the Silent Hill mythos. The lyrics to the song are a summary of the memos related to these key figures and are read by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn. A vocal-less instrumental version was released on the Silent Hill Sounds Box, titled "No Excuses".

- Sun The Sun (Latin: Sol), a yellow dwarf, is the star at the center of the Solar System. The Earth and other matter (including other planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets, and dust) orbit the Sun,[9] which by itself accounts for about 98.6% of the Solar System's mass. The mean distance of the Sun from the Earth is approximately 149,600,000 kilometers, or 92,960,000 miles, and its light travels this distance in 8 minutes and 19 seconds. Energy from the Sun, in the form of sunlight, supports almost all life on Earth via photosynthesis,[10] and drives the Earth's climate and weather. The surface of the Sun consists of hydrogen (about 74% of its mass, or 92% of its volume), helium (about 24% of mass, 7% of volume), and trace quantities of other elements, including iron, nickel, oxygen, silicon, sulfur, magnesium, carbon, neon, calcium, and chromium.[11] The Sun has a spectral class of G2V. G2 means that it has a surface temperature of approximately 5,780 K (5,500 °C) giving it a white color that often, because of atmospheric scattering, appears yellow when seen from the surface of the Earth. This is a subtractive effect, as the preferential scattering of shorter wavelength light removes enough violet and blue light, leaving a range of frequencies that is perceived by the human eye as yellow. It is this scattering of light at the blue end of the spectrum that gives the surrounding sky its color. When the Sun is low in the sky, even more light is scattered so that the Sun appears orange or even red.[12] The Sun's spectrum contains lines of ionized and neutral metals as well as very weak hydrogen lines. The V (Roman five) in the spectral class indicates that the Sun, like most stars, is a main sequence star. This means that it generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. There are more than 100 million G2 class stars in our galaxy. Once regarded as a small and relatively insignificant star, the Sun is now known to be brighter than 85% of the stars in the galaxy, most of which are red dwarfs.[13] The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy at a distance of approximately 24,000 to 26,000 light years from the galactic center, moving generally in the direction of Cygnus and completing one revolution in about 225–250 million years (one Galactic year). Its orbital speed was thought to be 220±20 km/s, but a new estimate gives 251 km/s.[14] This is equivalent to about one light-year every 1,190 years, and about one AU every 7 days. These measurements of galactic distance and speed are as accurate as can be, given current knowledge, but this may change as more is learned.[15] Since our galaxy is moving with respect to the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) in the direction of Hydra with a speed of 550 km/s, the sun's resultant velocity with respect to the CMB is about 370 km/s in the direction of Crater or Leo.[16] The Sun is currently traveling through the Local Interstellar Cloud in the low-density Local Bubble zone of diffuse high-temperature gas, in the inner rim of the Orion Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy, between the larger Perseus and Sagittarius arms of the galaxy. Of the 50 nearest stellar systems within 17 light-years (1.6×1014 km) from the Earth, the Sun ranks 4th[citation needed] in absolute magnitude as a fourth magnitude star (M=+4.83).

These elements could most plausibly have been produced by endergonic nuclear reactions during a supernova, or by transmutation via neutron absorption inside a massive second-generation star. Sunlight is Earth's primary source of energy. The solar constant is the amount of power that the Sun deposits per unit area that is directly exposed to sunlight. The solar constant is equal to approximately 1368 watts per square meter at a distance of one AU from the Sun (that is, on or near Earth). Sunlight on the surface of Earth is attenuated by the Earth's atmosphere so that less power arrives at the surface—closer to 1,000 watts per directly exposed square meter in clear conditions when the Sun is near the zenith. This energy can be harnessed via a variety of natural and synthetic processes—photosynthesis by plants captures the energy of sunlight and converts it to chemical form (oxygen and reduced carbon compounds), while direct heating or electrical conversion by solar cells are used by solar power equipment to generate electricity or to do other useful work. The energy stored in petroleum and other fossil fuels was originally converted from sunlight by photosynthesis in the distant past. Ultraviolet light from the Sun has antiseptic properties and can be used to sanitize tools and water. It also causes sunburn, and has other medical effects such as the production of Vitamin D. Ultraviolet light is strongly attenuated by Earth's ozone layer, so that the amount of UV varies greatly with latitude and has been partially responsible for many biological adaptations, including variations in human skin color in different regions of the globe.[19] Observed from Earth, the Sun's path across the sky varies throughout the year. The shape described by the Sun's position, considered at the same time each day for a complete year, is called the analemma and resembles a figure 8 aligned along a north/south axis. While the most obvious variation in the Sun's apparent position through the year is a north/south swing over 47 degrees of angle (because of the 23.5-degree tilt of the Earth with respect to the Sun), there is an east/west component as well, caused by the acceleration of the Earth as it approaches its perihelion with the Sun, and the reduction in the Earth's speed as it moves away to approach its aphelion. The north/south swing in apparent angle is the main source of seasons on Earth. A rare optical phenomenon may occur shortly after sunset or before sunrise, known as a green flash. The flash is caused by light from the sun just below the horizon being bent (usually through a temperature inversion) towards the observer. Light of shorter wavelengths (violet, blue, green) is bent more than that of longer wavelengths (yellow, orange, red) but the violet and blue light is scattered more, leaving light that is perceived as green.[20] 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 around solar maximum. 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 solar wind that carry material through the Solar System. 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. Solar activity changes 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. Current topics of scientific inquiry include the Sun's regular cycle of sunspot activity, the physics and origin of flares and prominences, the magnetic interaction between the chromosphere and the corona, and the origin (propulsion source) of solar wind.[citation needed] Location within the galaxy The Sun lies close to the inner rim of the Milky Way Galaxy's Orion Arm, in the Local Fluff or the Gould Belt, at a hypothesized distance of 7.62±0.32 kpc (24,800 lightyears) from the Galactic Center.[21][22][23][24] The distance between the local arm and the next arm out, the Perseus Arm, is about 6,500 light-years.[25] The Sun, and thus the Solar System, is found in what scientists call the galactic habitable zone. The Apex of the Sun's Way, or the solar apex, is the direction that the Sun travels through space in the Milky Way. The general direction of the Sun's galactic motion is towards the star Vega near the constellation of Hercules, at an angle of roughly 60 sky degrees to the direction of the Galactic Center. The Sun's orbit around the Galaxy is expected to be roughly elliptical with the addition of perturbations due to the galactic spiral arms and non-uniform mass distributions. In addition the Sun oscillates up and down relative to the galactic plane approximately 2.7 times per orbit. This is very similar to how a simple harmonic oscillator works with no drag force (damping) term. It has been argued that the Sun's passage through the higher density spiral arms often coincides with mass extinctions on Earth, perhaps due to increased impact events.[26] It takes the Solar System about 225–250 million years to complete one orbit of the galaxy (a galactic year),[27] so it is thought to have completed 20–25 orbits during the lifetime of the Sun and 1/1250th of a revolution since the origin of humans. The orbital speed of the Solar System about the center of the Galaxy is approximately 251 km/s[14]. At this speed, it takes around 1400 years for the Solar System to travel a distance of 1 light-year, or 8 days to travel 1 AU.[28] The Sun experiences a significant wobble, as its center of mass with Jupiter lies beyond its surface, by 7% of its radius. Life cycle Main articles: Formation and evolution of the Solar System and Stellar Evolution The sun was formed about 4.57 billion years ago when the rapid collapse of a hydrogen molecular cloud led to the formation of a third generation T Tauri Population I star, the Sun. The nascent star assumed a nearly circular orbit about 26,000 light-years from the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. Solar formation is dated in two ways: the Sun's current main sequence age, determined using computer models of stellar evolution and nucleocosmochronology, is thought to be about 4.57 billion years.[29] This is in close accord with the radiometric date of the oldest solar system material, at 4.567 billion years ago.[30][31] The Sun 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; at this rate, the Sun will have so far converted around 100 Earth-masses of matter into energy. The Sun will spend a total of approximately 10 billion years as a main sequence star.[citation needed] The Sun does not have enough mass to explode as a supernova. Instead, in about 5 billion years, it will enter a red giant phase, its outer layers expanding as the hydrogen fuel in the core is consumed and the core contracts and heats up. Helium fusion will begin when the core temperature reaches around 100 million kelvins and will produce carbon, entering the asymptotic giant branch phase.[17] Life-cycle of the Sun; sizes are not drawn to scale. Earth's fate is precarious. As a red giant, the Sun will have a maximum radius beyond the Earth's current orbit, 1 AU (1.5×1011 m), 250 times the present radius of the Sun.[32] However, by the time it is an asymptotic giant branch star, the Sun will have lost roughly 30% of its present mass due to a stellar wind, so the orbits of the planets will move outward. If it were only for this, Earth would probably be spared, but new research suggests that Earth will be swallowed by the Sun owing to tidal interactions.[32] Even if Earth would escape incineration in the Sun, still all its water will be boiled away and most of its atmosphere would escape into space. In fact, even during its current life in the main sequence, the Sun is gradually becoming more luminous (about 10% every 1 billion years), and its surface temperature is slowly rising. The Sun used to be fainter in the past, which is possibly the reason why life on Earth has only existed for about 1 billion years on land. The increase in solar temperatures is such that already in about a billion years, the surface of the Earth will become too hot for liquid water to exist, ending all terrestrial life.[32][33] Following the red giant phase, intense thermal pulsations will cause the Sun to throw off its outer layers, forming a planetary nebula. The only object that will remain after the outer layers are ejected is the extremely hot stellar core, which will slowly cool and fade as a white dwarf over many billions of years. This stellar evolution scenario is typical of low- to medium-mass stars.[34][35] Structure An illustration of the structure of the Sun: Sun_diagram.svg 1. Core 2. Radiative zone 3. Convective zone 4. Photosphere 5. Chromosphere 6. Corona 7. Sunspot 8. Granules 9. Prominence The Sun is a yellow main sequence star comprising about 99% of the total mass of the Solar System. It is a near-perfect sphere, with an oblateness estimated at about 9 millionths,[36] which means that its polar diameter differs from its equatorial diameter by only 10 km (6 mi). As the Sun exists in a plasmatic state and is not solid, it rotates faster at its equator than at its poles. This behavior is known as differential rotation. The period of this actual rotation is approximately 25 days at the equator and 35 days at the poles. However, due to our constantly changing vantage point from the Earth as it orbits the Sun, the apparent rotation of the star at its equator is about 28 days. The centrifugal effect of this slow rotation is 18 million times weaker than the surface gravity at the Sun's equator. The tidal effect of the planets is even weaker, and does not significantly affect the shape of the Sun. The Sun does not have a definite boundary as rocky planets do, and in its outer parts the density of its gases drops approximately exponentially with increasing distance from its center. Nevertheless, it has a well-defined interior structure, described below. The Sun's radius is measured from its center to the edge of the photosphere. This is simply the layer above which the gases are too cool or too thin to radiate a significant amount of light, and is therefore the surface most readily visible to the naked eye. The solar interior is not directly observable, and the Sun itself is opaque to electromagnetic radiation. However, just as seismology uses waves generated by earthquakes to reveal the interior structure of the Earth, the discipline of helioseismology makes use of pressure waves (infrasound) traversing the Sun's interior to measure and visualize the star's inner structure. Computer modeling of the Sun is also used as a theoretical tool to investigate its deeper layers. Core Main article: Solar core Sun_parts_big.jpg Cross-section of a solar-type star (NASA) The core of the Sun is considered to extend from the center to about 0.2 solar radii.[37] It has a density of up to 150,000 kg/m3 (150 times the density of water on Earth) and a temperature of close to 13,600,000 kelvins (by contrast, the surface of the Sun is around 5,800 kelvins). Recent analysis of SOHO mission data favors a faster rotation rate in the core than in the rest of the radiative zone.[38] Through most of the Sun's life, energy is produced by nuclear fusion through a series of steps called the p–p (proton–proton) chain; this process converts hydrogen into helium. The core is the only location in the Sun that produces an appreciable amount of heat via fusion: the rest of the star is heated by energy that is transferred outward from the core. All of the energy produced by fusion in the core must travel through many successive layers to the solar photosphere before it escapes into space as sunlight or kinetic energy of particles. About 3.4 × 1038 protons (hydrogen nuclei) are converted into helium nuclei every second (out of ~8.9 × 1056 total amount of free protons in the Sun), releasing energy at the matter–energy conversion rate of 4.26 million metric tons per second, 383 yottawatts (3.83 × 1026 W) or 9.15 × 1010 megatons of TNT per second. This actually corresponds to a surprisingly low rate of energy production in the Sun's core—about 0.3 W/m3 (watts per cubic meter). This is less power than generated by a candle. Power density is about 6 µW/kg of matter. For comparison, the human body produces heat at approximately the rate 1.2 W/kg, roughly a million times greater per unit mass. The use of plasma with similar parameters for energy production on Earth would be completely impractical—even a modest 1 GW fusion power plant would require about 170 billion metric ton of plasma occupying almost one cubic mile. Hence, terrestrial fusion reactors utilize far higher plasma temperatures than those in Sun's interior. The rate of nuclear fusion depends strongly on density and temperature, so the fusion rate in the core is in a self-correcting equilibrium: a slightly higher rate of fusion would cause the core to heat up more and expand slightly against the weight of the outer layers, reducing the fusion rate and correcting the perturbation; and a slightly lower rate would cause the core to cool and shrink slightly, increasing the fusion rate and again reverting it to its present level. The high-energy photons (gamma rays) released in fusion reactions are absorbed in only a few millimeters of solar plasma and then re-emitted again in random direction (and at slightly lower energy)—so it takes a long time for radiation to reach the Sun's surface. Estimates of the "photon travel time" range between 10,000 and 170,000 years.[39] After a final trip through the convective outer layer to the transparent "surface" of the photosphere, the photons escape as visible light. Each gamma ray in the Sun's core is converted into several million visible light photons before escaping into space. Neutrinos are also released by the fusion reactions in the core, but unlike photons they rarely interact with matter, so almost all are able to escape the Sun immediately. For many years measurements of the number of neutrinos produced in the Sun were lower than theories predicted by a factor of 3. This discrepancy was recently resolved through the discovery of the effects of neutrino oscillation: the Sun in fact emits the number of neutrinos predicted by the theory, but neutrino detectors were missing 2/3 of them because the neutrinos had changed flavor.[40] Radiative zone From about 0.2 to about 0.7 solar radii, solar material is hot and dense enough that thermal radiation is sufficient to transfer the intense heat of the core outward. In this zone there is no thermal convection; while the material grows cooler as altitude increases, this temperature gradient is less than the value of adiabatic lapse rate and hence cannot drive convection. Heat is transferred by radiation—ions of hydrogen and helium emit photons, which travel a brief distance before being reabsorbed by other ions. In this way energy makes its way very slowly (see above) outward. Between the radiative zone and the convection zone is a transition layer called the tachocline. This is a region where the sharp regime change between the uniform rotation of the radiative zone and the differential rotation of the convection zone results in a large shear—a condition where successive horizontal layers slide past one another. Convection zone In the Sun's outer layer (down to approximately 70% of the solar radius), the solar plasma is not dense enough or hot enough to transfer the heat energy of the interior outward via radiation. As a result, thermal convection occurs as thermal columns carry hot material to the surface (photosphere) of the Sun. Once the material cools off at the surface, it plunges back downward to the base of the convection zone, to receive more heat from the top of the radiative zone. Convective overshoot is thought to occur at the base of the convection zone, carrying turbulent downflows into the outer layers of the radiative zone. The thermal columns in the convection zone form an imprint on the surface of the Sun, in the form of the solar granulation and supergranulation. The turbulent convection of this outer part of the solar interior gives rise to a "small-scale" dynamo that produces magnetic north and south poles all over the surface of the Sun. The Sun's thermal columns are Bénard cells and therefore tend to be hexagonal prisms.[citation needed] Photosphere The effective temperature, or black body temperature, of the Sun (5777 K) is the temperature a black body of the same size must have to yield the same total emissive power. The visible surface of the Sun, the photosphere, is the layer below which the Sun becomes opaque to visible light. Above the photosphere visible sunlight is free to propagate into space, and its energy escapes the Sun entirely. The change in opacity is due to the decreasing amount of H- ions, which absorb visible light easily. Conversely, the visible light we see is produced as electrons react with hydrogen atoms to produce H- ions.[41][42] The photosphere is actually tens to hundreds of kilometers thick, being slightly less opaque than air on Earth. Because the upper part of the photosphere is cooler than the lower part, an image of the Sun appears brighter in the center than on the edge or limb of the solar disk, in a phenomenon known as limb darkening. Sunlight has approximately a black-body spectrum that indicates its temperature is about 6,000 K, interspersed with atomic absorption lines from the tenuous layers above the photosphere. The photosphere has a particle density of about 1023 m−3 (this is about 1% of the particle density of Earth's atmosphere at sea level). During early studies of the optical spectrum of the photosphere, some absorption lines were found that did not correspond to any chemical elements then known on Earth. In 1868, Norman Lockyer hypothesized that these absorption lines were because of a new element which he dubbed "helium", after the Greek Sun god Helios. It was not until 25 years later that helium was isolated on Earth.[43] Atmosphere Main articles: Corona and Coronal loop During a total solar eclipse, the solar corona can be seen with the naked eye. The parts of the Sun above the photosphere are referred to collectively as the solar atmosphere. They can be viewed with telescopes operating across the electromagnetic spectrum, from radio through visible light to gamma rays, and comprise five principal zones: the temperature minimum, the chromosphere, the transition region, the corona, and the heliosphere. The heliosphere, which may be considered the tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun, extends outward past the orbit of Pluto to the heliopause, where it forms a sharp shock front boundary with the interstellar medium. The chromosphere, transition region, and corona are much hotter than the surface of the Sun. The reason why has not been conclusively proven; evidence suggests that Alfvén waves may have enough energy to heat the corona.[44] The coolest layer of the Sun is a temperature minimum region about 500 km above the photosphere, with a temperature of about 4,000 K. This part of the Sun is cool enough to support simple molecules such as carbon monoxide and water, which can be detected by their absorption spectra. Above the temperature minimum layer is a thin layer about 2,500 km thick,[45] dominated by a spectrum of emission and absorption lines. It is called the chromosphere from the Greek root chroma, meaning color, because the chromosphere is visible as a colored flash at the beginning and end of total eclipses of the Sun. The temperature in the chromosphere increases gradually with altitude, ranging up to around 100,000 K near the top. Taken by Hinode's Solar Optical Telescope on January 12, 2007, this image of the Sun reveals the filamentary nature of the plasma connecting regions of different magnetic polarity. Above the chromosphere is a transition region in which the temperature rises rapidly from around 100,000 K to coronal temperatures closer to one million K. The increase is because of a phase transition as helium within the region becomes fully ionized by the high temperatures. The transition region does not occur at a well-defined altitude. Rather, it forms a kind of nimbus around chromospheric features such as spicules and filaments, and is in constant, chaotic motion. The transition region is not easily visible from Earth's surface, but is readily observable from space by instruments sensitive to the far ultraviolet portion of the spectrum. The corona is the extended outer atmosphere of the Sun, which is much larger in volume than the Sun itself. The corona merges smoothly with the solar wind that fills the Solar System and heliosphere. The low corona, which is very near the surface of the Sun, has a particle density of 1014–1016 m−3. (Earth's atmosphere near sea level has a particle density of about 2 × 1025 m−3.) The temperature of the corona is several million kelvins. While no complete theory yet exists to account for the temperature of the corona, at least some of its heat is known to be from magnetic reconnection. The heliosphere extends from approximately 20 solar radii (0.1 AU) to the outer fringes of the Solar System. Its inner boundary is defined as the layer in which the flow of the solar wind becomes superalfvénic—that is, where the flow becomes faster than the speed of Alfvén waves.[citation needed] Turbulence and dynamic forces outside this boundary cannot affect the shape of the solar corona within, because the information can only travel at the speed of Alfvén waves. The solar wind travels outward continuously through the heliosphere, forming the solar magnetic field into a spiral shape, until it impacts the heliopause more than 50 AU from the Sun. In December 2004, the Voyager 1 probe passed through a shock front that is thought to be part of the heliopause. Both of the Voyager probes have recorded higher levels of energetic particles as they approach the boundary.[46] Chemical composition The Sun is composed primarily of the chemical elements hydrogen and helium; they account for 74.9% and 23.8% of the mass of the Sun in the photosphere, respectively.[47] All heavier elements, called metals in astronomy, account for less than 2 percent of the mass. The most abundant metals are oxygen (roughly 1% of the Sun's mass), carbon (0.3%), neon (0.2%), and iron (0.2%).[48] The Sun inherited its chemical composition from the interstellar medium out of which it formed: the hydrogen and helium in the Sun were produced by Big Bang nucleosynthesis. The metals were produced by stellar nucleosynthesis in generations of stars which completed their stellar evolution and returned their material to the interstellar medium prior to the formation of the Sun.[49] The chemical composition of the photosphere is normally considered representative of the composition of the primordial Solar System.[50] However, since the Sun formed, the helium and heavy elements have settled out of the photosphere. Therefore, the photosphere now contains slightly less helium and only 84% of the heavy elements than the protostellar Sun did; the protostellar Sun was 71.1% hydrogen, 27.4% helium, and 1.5% metals.[47][51] In the inner portions of the Sun, nuclear fusion has modified the composition by converting hydrogen into helium, so the innermost portion of the Sun is now roughly 60% helium, with the metal abundance unchanged. Because the interior of the Sun is radiative, not convective (see Structure above), none of the fusion products from the core have risen to the photosphere.[52] The solar heavy-element abundances described above are typically measured both using spectroscopy of the Sun's photosphere and by measuring abundances in meteorites that have never been heated to melting temperatures. These meteorites are thought to retain the composition of the protostellar Sun and thus not affected by settling of heavy elements. The two methods generally agree well.[11] Singly ionized iron group elements In 1970s, much research focused on the abundances of iron group elements in the Sun.[53][54] Although significant research was done, the abundance determination of some iron group elements (eg cobalt and manganese) was still difficult at least as far as 1978 because of their hyperfine structures.[53] The first largely complete set of oscillator strengths of singly ionized iron group elements were made available first in the 1960s[55], and improved oscillator strengths were computed in 1976.[56] In 1978 the abundances of singly ionized elements of the iron group were derived.[53] Solar and planetary mass fractionation relationship Various authors have considered the existence of a mass fractionation relationship between the isotopic compositions of solar and planetary noble gases,[57] for example correlations between isotopic compositions of planetary and solar Ne and Xe.[58] Nevertheless, the belief that the whole Sun has the same composition as the solar atmosphere was still widespread, at least until 1983.[59] In 1983, it was claimed that it was the fractionation in the Sun itself that caused the fractionation relationship between the isotopic compositions of planetary and solar wind implanted noble gases.[59] Solar cycles Main article: Sunspots Sunspots and the sunspot cycle Measurements of solar cycle variation during the last 30 years When observing the Sun with appropriate filtration, the most immediately visible features are usually its sunspots, which are well-defined surface areas that appear darker than their surroundings because of lower temperatures. Sunspots are regions of intense magnetic activity where convection is inhibited by strong magnetic fields, reducing energy transport from the hot interior to the surface. The magnetic field gives rise to strong heating in the corona, forming active regions that are the source of intense solar flares and coronal mass ejections. The largest sunspots can be tens of thousands of kilometers across. The number of sunspots visible on the Sun is not constant, but varies over an 11-year cycle known as the solar cycle. At a typical solar minimum, few sunspots are visible, and occasionally none at all can be seen. Those that do appear are at high solar latitudes. As the sunspot cycle progresses, the number of sunspots increases and they move closer to the equator of the Sun, a phenomenon described by Spörer's law. Sunspots usually exist as pairs with opposite magnetic polarity. The magnetic polarity of the leading sunspot alternates every solar cycle, so that it will be a north magnetic pole in one solar cycle and a south magnetic pole in the next. History of the number of observed sunspots during the last 250 years, which shows the ~11-year solar cycle The solar cycle has a great influence on space weather, and is a significant influence on the Earth's climate since luminosity has a direct relationship with magnetic activity. Solar activity minima tend to be correlated with colder temperatures, and longer than average solar cycles tend to be correlated with hotter temperatures. In the 17th century, the solar cycle appears to have stopped entirely for several decades; very few sunspots were observed during this period. During this era, which is known as the Maunder minimum or Little Ice Age, Europe experienced very cold temperatures.[60] Earlier extended minima have been discovered through analysis of tree rings and also appear to have coincided with lower-than-average global temperatures. Possible long term cycle A recent theory claims that there are magnetic instabilities in the core of the Sun which cause fluctuations with periods of either 41,000 or 100,000 years. These could provide a better explanation of the ice ages than the Milankovitch cycles.[61][62] Theoretical problems Solar neutrino problem Main article: Solar neutrino problem For many years the number of solar electron neutrinos detected on Earth was one third to one half of the number predicted by the standard solar model. This anomalous result was termed the solar neutrino problem. Theories proposed to resolve the problem either tried to reduce the temperature of the Sun's interior to explain the lower neutrino flux, or posited that electron neutrinos could oscillate—that is, change into undetectable tau and muon neutrinos as they traveled between the Sun and the Earth.[63] Several neutrino observatories were built in the 1980s to measure the solar neutrino flux as accurately as possible, including the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory and Kamiokande. Results from these observatories eventually led to the discovery that neutrinos have a very small rest mass and do indeed oscillate.[40] Moreover, in 2001 the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory was able to detect all three types of neutrinos directly, and found that the Sun's total neutrino emission rate agreed with the Standard Solar Model, although depending on the neutrino energy as few as one-third of the neutrinos seen at Earth are of the electron type. This proportion agrees with that predicted by the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein effect (also known as the matter effect), which describes neutrino oscillation in matter. Hence, the problem is now resolved. Coronal heating problem Main article: Corona The optical surface of the Sun (the photosphere) is known to have a temperature of approximately 6,000 K. Above it lies the solar corona at a temperature of 1,000,000 K. The high temperature of the corona shows that it is heated by something other than direct heat conduction from the photosphere. It is thought that the energy necessary to heat the corona is provided by turbulent motion in the convection zone below the photosphere, and two main mechanisms have been proposed to explain coronal heating. The first is wave heating, in which sound, gravitational and magnetohydrodynamic waves are produced by turbulence in the convection zone. These waves travel upward and dissipate in the corona, depositing their energy in the ambient gas in the form of heat. The other is magnetic heating, in which magnetic energy is continuously built up by photospheric motion and released through magnetic reconnection in the form of large solar flares and myriad similar but smaller events.[64] Currently, it is unclear whether waves are an efficient heating mechanism. All waves except Alfvén waves have been found to dissipate or refract before reaching the corona.[65] In addition, Alfvén waves do not easily dissipate in the corona. Current research focus has therefore shifted towards flare heating mechanisms. One possible candidate to explain coronal heating is continuous flaring at small scales,[66] but this remains an open topic of investigation. Faint young Sun problem Main article: Faint young Sun paradox Theoretical models of the Sun's development suggest that 3.8 to 2.5 billion years ago, during the Archean period, the Sun was only about 75% as bright as it is today. Such a weak star would not have been able to sustain liquid water on the Earth's surface, and thus life should not have been able to develop. However, the geological record demonstrates that the Earth has remained at a fairly constant temperature throughout its history, and in fact that the young Earth was somewhat warmer than it is today. The consensus among scientists is that the young Earth's atmosphere contained much larger quantities of greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide, methane and/or ammonia) than are present today, which trapped enough heat to compensate for the lesser amount of solar energy reaching the planet.[67] Magnetic field See also: Stellar magnetic field The heliospheric current sheet extends to the outer reaches of the Solar System, and results from the influence of the Sun's rotating magnetic field on the plasma in the interplanetary medium.[68] All matter in the Sun is in the form of gas and plasma because of its high temperatures. This makes it possible for the Sun to rotate faster at its equator (about 25 days) than it does at higher latitudes (about 35 days near its poles). The differential rotation of the Sun's latitudes causes its magnetic field lines to become twisted together over time, causing magnetic field loops to erupt from the Sun's surface and trigger the formation of the Sun's dramatic sunspots and solar prominences (see magnetic reconnection). This twisting action gives rise to the solar dynamo and an 11-year solar cycle of magnetic activity as the Sun's magnetic field reverses itself about every 11 years. The influence of the Sun's rotating magnetic field on the plasma in the interplanetary medium creates the heliospheric current sheet, which separates regions with magnetic fields pointing in different directions. The plasma in the interplanetary medium is also responsible for the strength of the Sun's magnetic field at the orbit of the Earth. If space were a vacuum, then the Sun's 10-4 tesla magnetic dipole field would reduce with the cube of the distance to about 10-11 tesla. But satellite observations show that it is about 100 times greater at around 10-9 tesla. The dipole field of the sun is roughly the same as the earth's magnetic field, but it extends over a vastly greater volume of space. Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) theory predicts that the motion of a conducting fluid (such as the interplanetary medium) in a magnetic field induces electric currents, which in turn generate magnetic fields, and in this respect it behaves like an MHD dynamo. History of observation Early understanding The Trundholm Sun chariot pulled by a horse is a sculpture believed to be illustrating an important part of Nordic Bronze Age mythology. Humanity's most fundamental understanding of the Sun is as the luminous disk in the sky, whose presence above the horizon creates day and whose absence causes night. In many prehistoric and ancient cultures, the Sun was thought to be a solar deity or other supernatural phenomenon. Worship of the Sun was central to civilizations such as the Inca of South America and the Aztecs of what is now Mexico. Many ancient monuments were constructed with solar phenomena in mind; for example, stone megaliths accurately mark the summer or winter solstice (some of the most prominent megaliths are located in Nabta Playa, Egypt, Mnajdra, Malta and at Stonehenge, England); Newgrange, a prehistoric human-built mount in Ireland, was designed to detect the winter solstice; the pyramid of El Castillo at Chichén Itzá in Mexico is designed to cast shadows in the shape of serpents climbing the pyramid at the vernal and autumn equinoxes. During the Roman era the winter solstice was a holiday celebrated as Sol Invictus (literally "unconquered sun") which is an antecedent to Christmas. With respect to the fixed stars, the Sun appears from Earth to revolve once a year along the ecliptic through the zodiac, and so Greek astronomers considered it to be one of the seven planets (Greek planetes, "wanderer"), after which the seven days of the week are named in some languages. Development of scientific understanding One of the first people to offer a scientific, or philosophical explanation for the Sun, was the Greek philosopher Anaxagoras, who reasoned that it was a giant flaming ball of metal even larger than the Peloponnesus, and not the chariot of Helios.[citation needed] For teaching this heresy, he was imprisoned by the authorities and sentenced to death, though he was later released through the intervention of Pericles. Eratosthenes might have been the first person to have accurately calculated the distance from the Earth to the Sun, in the 3rd century BCE, as 149 million kilometers, roughly the same as the modern accepted figure. The theory that the Sun is the center around which the planets move was apparently proposed by the ancient Greek Aristarchus and some Ancient Indians (see Heliocentrism). This view was revived in the 16th century by Nicolaus Copernicus. In the early 17th century, the invention of the telescope permitted detailed observations of sunspots by Thomas Harriot, Galileo Galilei and other astronomers. Galileo made some of the first known Western observations of sunspots and posited that they were on the surface of the Sun rather than small objects passing between the Earth and the Sun.[69] Sunspots were also observed since the Han dynasty and Chinese astronomers maintained records of these observations for centuries. In 1672 Giovanni Cassini and Jean Richer determined the distance to Mars and were thereby able to calculate the distance to the Sun. Isaac Newton observed the Sun's light using a prism, and showed that it was made up of light of many colors,[70] while in 1800 William Herschel discovered infrared radiation beyond the red part of the solar spectrum.[71] The 1800s saw spectroscopic studies of the Sun advance, and Joseph von Fraunhofer made the first observations of absorption lines in the spectrum, the strongest of which are still often referred to as Fraunhofer lines. When expanding the spectrum of light from the Sun, there are large number of missing colors can be found. In the early years of the modern scientific era, the source of the Sun's energy was a significant puzzle. Lord Kelvin suggested that the Sun was a gradually cooling liquid body that was radiating an internal store of heat.[72] Kelvin and Hermann von Helmholtz then proposed the Kelvin-Helmholtz mechanism to explain the energy output. Unfortunately the resulting age estimate was only 20 million years, well short of the time span of at least 300 million years suggested by some geological discoveries of that time.[72] In 1890 Joseph Lockyer, who discovered helium in the solar spectrum, proposed a meteoritic hypothesis for the formation and evolution of the Sun.[73] Not until 1904 was a substantiated solution offered. Ernest Rutherford suggested that the Sun's output could be maintained by an internal source of heat, and suggested radioactive decay as the source.[74] However it would be Albert Einstein who would provide the essential clue to the source of the Sun's energy output with his mass-energy equivalence relation E = mc2. In 1920 Sir Arthur Eddington proposed that the pressures and temperatures at the core of the Sun could produce a nuclear fusion reaction that merged hydrogen (protons) into helium nuclei, resulting in a production of energy from the net change in mass.[75] The preponderance of hydrogen in the Sun was confirmed in 1925 by Cecilia Payne. The theoretical concept of fusion was developed in the 1930s by the astrophysicists Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar and Hans Bethe. Hans Bethe calculated the details of the two main energy-producing nuclear reactions that power the Sun.[76][77] Finally, a seminal paper was published in 1957 by Margaret Burbidge, entitled "Synthesis of the Elements in Stars".[78] The paper demonstrated convincingly that most of the elements in the universe had been synthesized by nuclear reactions inside stars, some like our Sun. This revelation stands today as one of the great achievements of science. Solar space missions The Moon passing in front of the Sun, as taken by the STEREO-B spacecraft on February 25, 2007. Because the satellite is in an Earth-trailing orbit and is further from the Moon than the Earth is, the Moon appears smaller than the Sun.[79] The first satellites designed to observe the Sun were NASA's Pioneers 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, which were launched between 1959 and 1968. These probes orbited the Sun at a distance similar to that of the Earth, and made the first detailed measurements of the solar wind and the solar magnetic field. Pioneer 9 operated for a particularly long period of time, transmitting data until 1987.[80] In the 1970s, Helios 1 and the Skylab Apollo Telescope Mount provided scientists with significant new data on solar wind and the solar corona. The Helios 1 satellite was a joint U.S.-German probe that studied the solar wind from an orbit carrying the spacecraft inside Mercury's orbit at perihelion. The Skylab space station, launched by NASA in 1973, included a solar observatory module called the Apollo Telescope Mount that was operated by astronauts resident on the station. Skylab made the first time-resolved observations of the solar transition region and of ultraviolet emissions from the solar corona. Discoveries included the first observations of coronal mass ejections, then called "coronal transients", and of coronal holes, now known to be intimately associated with the solar wind. In 1980, the Solar Maximum Mission was launched by NASA. This spacecraft was designed to observe gamma rays, X-rays and UV radiation from solar flares during a time of high solar activity and solar luminosity. Just a few months after launch, however, an electronics failure caused the probe to go into standby mode, and it spent the next three years in this inactive state. In 1984 Space Shuttle Challenger mission STS-41C retrieved the satellite and repaired its electronics before re-releasing it into orbit. The Solar Maximum Mission subsequently acquired thousands of images of the solar corona before re-entering the Earth's atmosphere in June 1989.[81] Japan's Yohkoh (Sunbeam) satellite, launched in 1991, observed solar flares at X-ray wavelengths. Mission data allowed scientists to identify several different types of flares, and also demonstrated that the corona away from regions of peak activity was much more dynamic and active than had previously been supposed. Yohkoh observed an entire solar cycle but went into standby mode when an annular eclipse in 2001 caused it to lose its lock on the Sun. It was destroyed by atmospheric reentry in 2005.[82] One of the most important solar missions to date has been the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, jointly built by the European Space Agency and NASA and launched on 2 December 1995. Originally a two-year mission, SOHO has now operated for over ten years (as of 2007). It has proved so useful that a follow-on mission, the Solar Dynamics Observatory, is planned for launch in 2008. Situated at the Lagrangian point between the Earth and the Sun (at which the gravitational pull from both is equal), SOHO has provided a constant view of the Sun at many wavelengths since its launch. In addition to its direct solar observation, SOHO has enabled the discovery of large numbers of comets, mostly very tiny sungrazing comets which incinerate as they pass the Sun.[83] All these satellites have observed the Sun from the plane of the ecliptic, and so have only observed its equatorial regions in detail. The Ulysses probe was launched in 1990 to study the Sun's polar regions. It first traveled to Jupiter, to "slingshot" past the planet into an orbit which would take it far above the plane of the ecliptic. Serendipitously, it was well-placed to observe the collision of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter in 1994. Once Ulysses was in its scheduled orbit, it began observing the solar wind and magnetic field strength at high solar latitudes, finding that the solar wind from high latitudes was moving at about 750 km/s which was slower than expected, and that there were large magnetic waves emerging from high latitudes which scattered galactic cosmic rays.[84] Elemental abundances in the photosphere are well known from spectroscopic studies, but the composition of the interior of the Sun is more poorly understood. A solar wind sample return mission, Genesis, was designed to allow astronomers to directly measure the composition of solar material. Genesis returned to Earth in 2004 but was damaged by a crash landing after its parachute failed to deploy on reentry into Earth's atmosphere. Despite severe damage, some usable samples have been recovered from the spacecraft's sample return module and are undergoing analysis.[citation needed] The Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) mission was launched in October 2006. Two identical spacecraft were launched into orbits that cause them to (respectively) pull further ahead of and fall gradually behind the Earth. This enables stereoscopic imaging of the Sun and solar phenomena, such as coronal mass ejections. If one were to observe it from Alpha Centauri, the closest star system, the Sun would appear to be in the constellation Cassiopeia.[85] Also, the Indian Space Research Organization is planning the "Aditya" mission to the sun.[86] Observation and eye damage The Sun as it appears through a camera lens from the surface of Earth Sunlight is very bright, and looking directly at the Sun with the naked eye for brief periods can be painful, but is not particularly hazardous for normal, non-dilated eyes.[87][88] Looking directly at the Sun causes phosphene visual artifacts and temporary partial blindness. It also delivers about 4 milliwatts of sunlight to the retina, slightly heating it and potentially causing damage in eyes that cannot respond properly to the brightness.[89][90] UV exposure gradually yellows the lens of the eye over a period of years and is thought to contribute to the formation of cataracts, but this depends on general exposure to solar UV, not on whether one looks directly at the Sun.[91] Long-duration viewing of the direct Sun with the naked eye can begin to cause UV-induced, sunburn-like lesions on the retina after about 100 seconds, particularly under conditions where the UV light from the Sun is intense and well focused;[92][93] conditions are worsened by young eyes or new lens implants (which admit more UV than aging natural eyes), Sun angles near the zenith, and observing locations at high altitude. Viewing the Sun through light-concentrating optics such as binoculars is very hazardous without an appropriate filter that blocks UV and substantially dims the sunlight. An attenuating (ND) filter might not filter UV and so is still dangerous. Unfiltered binoculars can deliver over 500 times as much energy to the retina as using the naked eye, killing retinal cells almost instantly (even though the power per unit area of image on the retina is the same, the heat cannot dissipate fast enough because the image is larger). Even brief glances at the midday Sun through unfiltered binoculars can cause permanent blindness.[94] One way to view the Sun safely is by projecting its image onto a screen using a telescope and eyepiece without cemented elements. This should only be done with a small refracting telescope (or binoculars) with a clean eyepiece. Other kinds of telescopes can be damaged by this procedure. Partial solar eclipses are hazardous to view because the eye's pupil is not adapted to the unusually high visual contrast: the pupil dilates according to the total amount of light in the field of view, not by the brightest object in the field. During partial eclipses most sunlight is blocked by the Moon passing in front of the Sun, but the uncovered parts of the photosphere have the same surface brightness as during a normal day. In the overall gloom, the pupil expands from ~2 mm to ~6 mm, and each retinal cell exposed to the solar image receives about ten times more light than it would looking at the non-eclipsed Sun. This can damage or kill those cells, resulting in small permanent blind spots for the viewer.[95] The hazard is insidious for inexperienced observers and for children, because there is no perception of pain: it is not immediately obvious that one's vision is being destroyed. During sunrise and sunset, sunlight is attenuated due to Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering from a particularly long passage through Earth's atmosphere and the direct Sun is sometimes faint enough to be viewed comfortably with the naked eye or safely with optics (provided there is no risk of bright sunlight suddenly appearing through a break between clouds). Hazy conditions, atmospheric dust, and high humidity contribute to this atmospheric attenuation. Attenuating filters to view the Sun should be specifically designed for that use: some improvised filters pass UV or IR rays that can harm the eye at high brightness levels. Filters on telescopes or binoculars should be on the objective lens or aperture, never on the eyepiece, because eyepiece filters can suddenly crack or shatter due to high heat loads from the absorbed sunlight. Welding glass #14 is an acceptable solar filter, but "black" exposed photographic film is not (it passes too much infrared). Terminology Like other natural phenomena, the Sun has been an object of veneration in many cultures throughout human history, and was the source of the word Sunday. The Latin name Sol (pronounced /sɒl/ in English) is widely known but not common in general English language use, although the adjectival form is the related word solar. "Sol" is rarely used in scientific circles, and is not considered an official English name of the Sun; it makes no appearances in common reference sources.[96] "Sol" is more likely to be encountered in science fiction writing (Star Trek in particular) as a formal name for the specific star, since in many stories the use of "sun" as a generic term for the local star would be ambiguous. By extension, the Solar System is often referred to in science fiction as the "Sol System". The term sol is used by planetary astronomers to refer to the duration of a solar day on another planet, such as Mars.[97] A mean Earth solar day is approximately 24 hours, while a mean Martian sol, is 24 hours, 39 minutes, and 35.244 seconds.[98] See also Timekeeping on Mars. Sol is also the modern word for "Sun" in Portuguese, Spanish, Icelandic, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Leonese, Catalan and Galician. The Peruvian currency nuevo sol is named after the Sun (in Spanish), like its successor (and predecessor, in use 1985–1991) the Inti (in Quechua). In Persian, sol means "solar year". In East Asia the Sun is represented by the symbol 日 (Chinese pinyin rì or Japanese nichi) or 太阳(simplified)/太陽(traditional) (pinyin tài yáng or Japanese taiyō). In Vietnamese these Han words are called nhật and thái dương respectively, while the native Vietnamese word mặt trời literally means "face of the heavens". The Moon and the Sun are associated with the yin and yang where the Moon represents yin and the Sun yang as dynamic opposites. The Solar dominion of light The point in space where the visible light flux of the Sun equates with the total light flux of the surrounding universe is reached when the interstellar traveller goes 11,500 astronomical units beyond the Sun (see "Ahad's Sphere" in popular culture).

- The Sun is a normal seen charater in maybe every episode.It's been reaveled in Stinky Love that it's a female.She seen doing random things at day or doing something with the Moon or the King of the Sky,for example,in Sing Beans she was acting like pacman when charging to eat the Moon.
- Ruinstone looked to Aquaflow. "There is something different about that cat..." "Frost seems like a name that fits her, it seems she likes the cold, and water." Aquaflow pointed out. Nicky padded up. "We need to worry more about Josie, she's going to have my kit's very soon." Ruinstone nodded. "I guess you're right Nicky, we'll worry about Frost later..." Nicky smiled and purred. Aquaflow padded over to him. "C'mon Nicky, I'll come with you to check on Josie." "Thanks." He meowed. The two padded away. Ruinstone looked to Frost, the young cat was playing around with Saddie, tomorrow they would be exploring the White Lands. Just like Saddie said... Ruinstone thought. Sighing he padded away.
- The sun is a major celestial body which the Earth orbits around in its solar system. The book of Genesis in the Bible calls it "the greater light" which God had created in the beginning when He created the heavens and the earth. In the Left Behind books, the sun is an important element in some of the judgments that God had poured out on mankind during the Tribulation. In the sixth Seal Judgment, the sun turned black as sackcloth while the moon turned red as blood. In the fourth Trumpet Judgment, the sun's light and heat are diminished by a third of its strength, causing temperatures to plummet. In the fourth Bowl Judgment, the sun's heat is increased, scorching to death those who have taken the "mark of loyalty" and worshiped Nicolae Carpathia's image, and also causing the polar ice caps to melt. Near the time of the Glorious Appearing, both the sun and the moon stopped shining in the sky.
- The surface of the Sun consists of hydrogen (about 74% of its mass, or 92% of its volume), helium (about 24% of mass, 7% of volume), and trace quantities of other elements, including iron, nickel, oxygen, silicon, sulfur, magnesium, carbon, neon, calcium, and chromium. The Sun has a spectral class of G2V. G2 means that it has a surface temperature of approximately 5,780 K (5,500 C) giving it a white color that often, because of atmospheric scattering, appears yellow when seen from the surface of the Earth. This is a subtractive effect, as the preferential scattering of shorter wavelength light removes enough violet and blue light, leaving a range of frequencies that is perceived by the human eye as yellow. It is this scattering of light at the blue end of the spectrum that gives the surrounding sky its color. When the Sun is low in the sky, even more light is scattered so that the Sun appears orange or even red. The Sun's spectrum contains lines of ionized and neutral metals as well as very weak hydrogen lines. The V (Roman five) in the spectral class indicates that the Sun, like most stars, is a main sequence star. This means that it generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. There are more than 100 million G2 class stars in our galaxy. Once regarded as a small and relatively insignificant star, the Sun is now known to be brighter than 85% of the stars in the galaxy, most of which are red dwarfs. The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy at a distance of approximately 26,000 to 27,000 light-years from the galactic center, moving generally in the direction of Cygnus and completing one revolution in about 225–250 million years (one Galactic year). Its orbital speed was thought to be 220±20 km/s, but a new estimate gives 251 km/s. This is equivalent to about one light-year every 1,190 years, and about one AU every 7 days. These measurements of galactic distance and speed are as accurate as we can get given our current knowledge, but may change as we learn more. Since our galaxy is moving with respect to the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) in the direction of Hydra with a speed of 550 km/s, the sun's resultant velocity with respect to the CMB is about 370 km/s in the direction of Crater or Leo. The Sun is currently traveling through the Local Interstellar Cloud in the low-density Local Bubble zone of diffuse high-temperature gas, in the inner rim of the Orion Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy, between the larger Perseus and Sagittarius arms of the galaxy. Of the 50 nearest stellar systems within from the Earth, the Sun ranks 4th in absolute magnitude as a fourth magnitude star (M=4.83).
- The sun is one of America's major competitor for ruler of the solar system. George W. Bush is the next most likely candidate. But thanks to America's love of sunglasses and tanning lotion, the relentless insurgency of the sun on the fine outdoors people of America has thus far been unsuccessful. In 2075 NASA will launch rockets to the Sun to make it so the Sun orbits the Earth, in a Biblically correct manner. This article is a stub. You can get a Tip of the Hat* from Stephen by adding only truthiness to it.*Tip of the Hat not guaranteed.
- People from all cultures watched its path and learned its patterns in the sky, putting spiritual meaning behind its yearly cycle. In many cultures, there were monuments built to keep track of the year, one of the most famous being Stonehenge.
- The sun is a rides you can buy in the SC Marketplace for 350 Station Cash, you must be V.I.P rank 2 to purchase this ride.
- The Sun is the yellow star found in the center of the Solar System - a star system in Orion Nebula on the arm of the galaxy people of Earth named "Milky Way." Like some of the star systems, the Sun have no other star within its gravitational pull. The star is consisted mainly of hydrogen and helium, though other elements may be found as a byproduct of the star's natural nuclear fusion. Prior to, and what led to, the Comet Empire conflict, a stray missiles from the Galmon empire drove itself into the Sun and cause a catalytic disturbance with the Sun's fusion pattern. This resulted the Sun slowly turning into a hot red giant star that will vanquish all life on Earth in one year and will turn into a supernova in three. But with the help of planet Gratiana's advance weaponry given to the Yamato, it was able to reverse the effect of the missile and the star return to its original state.
- A sun is an aspect of the Material Plane also known as a "star". Planets usually revolve around a sun (except maybe the anomaly of Outland). Some planets, like K'aresh, have more than one sun. Suns and moons are seen in the sky of planets.
- As part of the formation of their fleet in Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan, the Guardians of World Peace created a mecha known as Sun Vulcan Robo to combat against the giant Monger created by the Machine Empire Black Magma, with it empowered by the solar power of the sun. During the final battle of the series, a solar eclipse occurs during Sun Vulcan Robo's final battle with Black Magma's mecha, King Magmar, making it lose power. The team is forced to withstand attack until the eclipse ends and an aurora at the North Pole recharges it to allow for King Magmar's defeat.Final Ep.: Shine, North Pole Aurora Like Sun Vulcan Robo, Daizyuzin of Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger is also empowered by solar energy, using it to convert to a power source known as Gaiatron. During a massive scheme by Witch Bandora to defeat Daizyuzin, she has the mecha fight during an eclipse against multiple threats, including saving a bus filled with children and a battle with giant versions of Grifforzer, Lamy and even Burai, Geki's own brother! Due to being overwhelmed and the sun being blocked, the mecha loses power and is forced to sink into the Earth to recover, handing Zyuranger their greatest defeat. Bandora could not take advantage of her enemy's loss due to Burai immediately turning around and attempting to attack her due to being satisfied with his brother's defeat, leading to his casting from her side and DragonRanger beginning a new phase of his battle.Ep. 20: Daizyuzin's Last DayEp. 21: The Shugozyu's Great Riot During an early scheme by the Machine Empire Baranoia in Chouriki Sentai Ohranger, Bara Missiler attempted to fly Ohranger Robo into the sun in order to eliminate it. However due to the usage of the mecha's helmet system, they were able to escape; using Horn Head to break the chains and Vulcan Head to fly back to Earth to defeat the giant Machine Beast.Ep. 8: Clash!! A Super Giant Battle In Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive, the sun is ultimately the final destination of the Psyma's Infinity Chain Card after it becomes implanted in Dragon Warrior Psyma Beast Lizardes, due to it's power to constantly become empowered by any attack that it absorbs making it become immune to it. By burning both the Psyma Beast and the card in the Sun, it was the only way to eliminate both threats.Ep. 39: Break the Infinity Chain! In a bid to eliminate the Kyurangers, Jark Matter Daikaan Mozuma plotted to send the ORION on a direct course to the Sun through the use of his microbial extensions. Though the ship's tolerance for intense heat was pushed to its limit, it was saved just short of destruction once control was restored upon the destruction of Mozuma at the hands of Shishi Red and Koguma Skyblue. Space.10: A Small Giant, Big Star!
- The Sun is a yellow dwarf star in the middle of the Solar System in the Milky Way galaxy. The Earth is one of the planets orbiting the Sun. In the episode Take Me to Your Leader of the 1987 TMNT cartoon, Shredder and Krang try to drain the Sun of all its stellar energy. In the Archie Comics, Slash sacrifies himself to keep the Malignoids busy from attacking the turtles as Maligna's hive spacecraft crashes right into the Sun., Slash sacrificing himself to keep the two villains from escaping.

- The Narnian sun was a large, bright object in the Narnian sky. It existed from the moment that Narnia first came into existence, till the day its history came to an end.
- When Sun was chased by Storm villagers, she fell. Doraemon saved her with the use of Upwards Airflow Mat.
- As the source of all life and growth on Earth, the Sun is the Universal Savior and King of Heaven. It is the original "dying-and-rising god" seen in many religions including Christianity and Zoroastrianism, and its role as the governor of the seasons means that its myths are often personifications of these natural cycles. For example, the "solar Christ" was a very popular theory in the 19th and early 20th centuries, though it has since fallen out of favor among biblical scholars (however there does exist a persistent "mysticist" stream, represented by such writers as Acharya S.). The Sun was the first of the seven Ptolemaic 'planets' (from Gr. planetese, 'wanderer'), and was equated with gold, one of the seven metals of Egypt (presumably also of the Ptolemaic period). The Sun is man, summer, heat and dryness while the Moon is woman, winter, silver, coolness and moisture. Dies Natalis Sol Invictus The vast majority of religious celebrations, no matter where in the world, tend to center on the times of the solstices (December 21 and June 22) and equinoxes (March 21 and September 22), as they are the major turning points in the solar year marking winter and summer, spring and autumn respectively. Most others center on the cross-quarters, or exact mid-points between these dates. The solstices are the extremes of light and darkness, and the equinoxes are their two balanced points in the year. Consider the fact that Christmas (Dec.25) is a mere four days after the winter solstice, and has been such for some 900 years or so (i.e., since before the introduction of the Gregorian calendar in 1582, which likely caused the four-day shift). It has been proposed that this date was chosen to align with the Roman "Dies Natalis Sol Invictus" (literally "Nativity Day [of the] Unconquerable Sun"), however there are many who disagree with this theory - perhaps most notably the Church of England. That the major Christian celebrations are predominantly solar in nature can hardly be argued, though, as for example the birth of John the Baptist has been assigned to the other solstice. The nativity of the Universal Savior is December 25th (technically 21st) because this is the longest night of the year: the "light of the world" (John 8:12) is but an infant; weak, low on the horizon. The Sun is at its 'youngest.' What often follows this birth is the archetypal Saturnine infanticide, in this case personified by Herod, who foresaw his own downfall with the omen of the Eastern Star. This star is most likely Venus, the Mother Goddess who may be recognized in the Holy Families of many civilizations, such as Egypt (Isis and Horus, or later Mary and Christ). The Saturnine infanticide is also seen in the birth of Zeus to Kronos (Saturn), the latter having nearly eaten the former in order to retain his kingship; ultimately he failed, as is invariably the case. This concept represents the lower, material self attempting to conquer and devour the pure, higher aspirations of the spirit. Agnus Dei and the Mithraic Tauroctony It is for reasons of fundamental as opposed to mere mythical correspondence that many scholars formerly equated Jesus with other solar deities - most frequently Mithras, Horus, Osiris and Dionysus. That each of these gods embody different cultural ideals is of little significance in the present context: Jesus, Dionysus and Mithras are all opposites: one a disciplined preacher of peace, the other a licentious alcoholic, still another a fierce warrior. Yet there are marked similarities between these deities and their lives, perhaps most emphatically between the Tauroctony (bull-slaying) of Mithras and the sacrifice of the Christian Agnus Dei (Lat., "Lamb of God;" i.e., Jesus). Many have suggested that these two events have little in common apart from the fact that they both occur around the time of Easter, or the spring equinox. It has been argued that because Mithras slays a bull, while Christ is slain as a lamb, the two are completely different; yet turning to astrology one notes firstly that the Mithraic is inevitably the older, as Taurus (the Bull) governed the time of the spring equinox up until c.200BCE, when this event slipped into Aries, the Ram; and secondly that Agnus Dei upon the Cross at Easter must surely be the Sun in Aries 'crossing' the celestial equator into the season of rebirth, bringing about the cyclical "redemption of all life." Further examples could be given, such as the fact that wine was a sacrament of Jesus, Mithras and Dionysus; that bread was of the former two; that Isis, mother of Horus, offered man wheat and grapes; etc.
- Sun (can also be named Star) is a fictional solid element for Powder Game.
- Sun est une mage de la guilde indépendante Hybrid Space.
- The sun is the main star in earth's planetary star system. It has been burning for approximately 5 billion revolutionary cycles of Earth and will continue burning for about the same amount of time. The sun is the base of the food chain for earthlings because it enables the plants on the planet to photosynthesise. At the end of its solar cycle, it will turn into a red giant, engulfing all of the planets in the earth's solar system inside of the asteroid belt.
- In most of the works of Harry Turtledove, the Sun is exactly the same body and performs the exact same functions. Certainly, no story has been set on the Sun. In nearly all Turtledove works, the Sun is orbited by eight planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, plus the dwarf planet Pluto. In A World of Difference, Minerva replaces Mars. The sun plays an indirect role in the story "But It Does Move", which is a story about Galileo Galilei's advocacy for the heliocentric model of our solar system. In Worldwar, the Race designate the Sun "Tosev". Earth, then is "Tosev 3".
- Nobody can go to the Sun because it's too hot for visitors! Asteroids(minor planets), comets, planets, meteroids and dwarf planets orbit the Sun, one of the planets orbiting it is Earth! The Earth's approximate distance from the Sun is 1 Astronomical Unit (AU) or (149.9 million km) that is why life and water exist on the planet. Over billions of years ago, the Earth was much closer to the Sun than now so no life survived there, then the Sun got bigger (see: solar life cycle) and the planets moved out and created their own orbital paths around it. The atmosphere and surface of our planet cooled and condensed to form the crust and rivers and oceans started appearing, and then life formed! The sun formed about 4.6 billion years ago, and has enough hydrogen to last for another 5-6 billion years. When the hydrogen in our Sun is burned up, the temperatures lowen and the star will expand into a size about 30-80x bigger than its normal. Our nearest star, will enter its red giant phase and destroy the Earth! But not to worry, because this will happen in billions of years!
- Dont be scared, its just yellow like your frurkin EYES!
- Sun ist der verzogene Herrscher vom Drachenkaiserland. Er ist zwar erst zwölf Jahre alt, jedoch regiert er ohne Gnade, und setzt seinen Kopf immer durch, auch gegen seine acht Jahre ältere Schwester Aya. Er wurde nur zum Drachenkaiser ernannt, weil Aya zu dem Zeitpunkt, wo seine Eltern starben, krank war, und so die Thronfolge nicht antreten konnte. Seine Untergebenen behandelt er wie Dreck, und sein Verhalten ändert sich erst, nachdem Kathy und Ashka ankommen. Sein erster Auftritt gestaltet sich äußerst interessant, denn er lässt vor der Schule nur seine Hand als Hologramm erscheinen und befiehlt Aya, mit erwachsener Stimme, Kathy, Ashka und Mek zum Palast zu bringen. Im Palast angekommen, erscheint Sun im Thronsaal unter gleißenden Licht und sperrt Ashka auch sofort wieder ein, als sie ihm ihr Powershirt vorführt, er aber mit dem Orakel auftrumpfen kann. Kathy dahingegen, macht er zu seiner Spielgefährtin, weil sie ihm Schokolade mitgebracht hat, jedoch will diese nur wieder nach Hause zurück, und verspielt sich somit die Freundschaft zu Sun. Sun fasst aber zu den beiden schnell wieder vertrauen, nachdem er mit Mek aus Australien zurückkommt, und das Transdimensionale Boot über dem Grenzfluss landet. Kathy und vor allem Ashka eilen ihm zu Hilfe und gewinnen so seine Gunst wieder. Sun ernennt Ashka zu seiner Beraterin, und entlässt Zenzo aus seinem Amt, weil er angeblich zu alt sei. [[Bild:Sun 2.JPG|thumb|300px|left|Sun erscheint mit Hilfe des Throns.]] Ab diesem Zeitpunkt muss Ashka alle Eskapaden mitmachen, die Sun zuvor an Zenzo ausgelassen hat, und erst als Ashka ihn in Australien zurück lässt, und Suns Tod vortäuscht, erkennt er, das Ashka nur Macht will. Unterdessen wird Kathy im Palast misstrauisch, und macht sich auf die Reise, um Sun zu suchen, und sie findet ihn auch, aber das Boot ist weg, und so müssen es die beiden wieder finden. Mit Kathys und Tonys Hilfe, schafft es Sun zurück zu kehren, und zusammen mit Josh, Vicky, Carl und Jasmin gelangen sie als Drache verkleidet in den Palast und können so Aya die Augen öffnen, woraufhin Ashka die Maske vom Hauptorakel nimmt und flüchtet, aber Kathy und Mek können sie ihr abnehmen können, und sie in Sicherheit bringen können. Derweil fallen die Barbaren ins Drachenkaiserland ein, und nehmen Sun und Aya gefangen, aber mit Kathys und Meks Rückkehr kann er flüchten und versteckt sich mit seiner Schwester bei Jasmin, bis Aya gefangen wird, und Sun mit Jasmin zu ihrer Rettung eilen, aber nur Sun kann entkommen. Er wird von Josh und Kathy aufgelesen, die mit dem Boot und dem anderen Carl in der Welt der anderen Morgans direkt in den Palast fliegen. Beim Hauptorakel versuchen zuerst Josh und Sun es zu reparieren, jedoch macht sich Sun auf den Weg, um Mek zu suchen, und wird von Sharak gefangen genommen. Bei der Hochzeit will er seinem Volk mitteilen, dass Sharak Aya zwingt ihn zu heiraten, wird aber von Carl eingeweiht, dass Aya in Sicherheit ist. Nachdem Sharak besiegt ist, und er auch verbannt ist, verabschiedet er sich von Kathy, und der Morgan-Familie und bringt sie zurück nach Australien. Danach lässt er Ashka die Steuereinheit des Bootes blind einstellen, und sie wird in einer Welt ohne Menschen ausgesetzt.
- Sun look close, but hard to reach. Me reach out with hands — and mouth — and feet — but is too far. My friend Og try to stand on my shoulder and reach, say he nearly touch it once, but still too far. Tomorrow we try with three people. Og's arms long, he bound to reach!
- Sun ("Sol") es la pista número 22 del disco Silent Hill 3 Original Soundtracks. Más bien, es una colección de las enseñanzas dadas por la Orden sobre la creación de Dios y la salvación del hombre. En Silent Hill 3, Heather Mason se encuentra con pinturas colgadas en la iglesia que acompañan a los mitos por separado. En ella también hay mención de los dos dioses Xuchilbara y Lobsel Vith, otras figuras claves en los mitos de Silent Hill. La letra es leída por Mary Elizabeth McGlynn.
- The Sun is the star of our solar system. Around it gravitate the Earth, seven more planets, three dwarf planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets and dust. Despite the large amount of objects orbiting around it, the Sun accounts for over 99% of the total mass of the solar system. Without the energy it irradiates, life on Earth would be impossible. Part of the Milky Way, the Sun is 15 parsecs from the equatorial plane of the galaxy, and approximately 8600 parsecs from the galactic core. The Sun is a third-generation star of the G2V class. The G means its surface temperature is average (5770 K), which gives it a white colour (it only appears yellow because of the atmosphere scattering), and the 2 refers to its luminosity, brighter than 85% of the stars of the galaxy (most of which being red dwarfs); the V part indicates its a main sequence star, generating energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium and is in a state of hydrostatic balance, neither contracting nor expanding over time.
- Doctor Sun is a doctor and facial reconstruction surgeon who resides in Diamond City in the year 2287. Before the completion of The Disappearing Act Doctor Sun can be found in the Diamond City market in where he sells medical supplies and can heal or cure the player. After completing The Disappearing Act he can be found inside the Mega surgery center (the entrance is between where he used to be and Solomon's Chem-I-Care).
- The Sun is the star around which our Earth revolves. It is the source of light, and thus the day is determined by the rotation of the Earth on its axis, putting any spot on the Earth's surface (between the Arctic Circle and Antarctic Circle alternately in the lighted area and the unlighted area. (North of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle, there are times of the year when this alternation does not occur; thise areas have periods when there is light all through the day and others when there is darkness all through the day.) (But see sidereal day, which is differently defined.) The year is determined by the time of revolution of the Earth around the Sun, and different types of year depend on what is defined as the "same point" in the Earth's orbit around the Sun.
- Two ten-years have passed since I rose to lead the Fifth Water Column. Our designated route leaving John’s Crevasse near Bal-Biliad took us straight Seaward and then east through the driest regions of this parched land. Twenty times have I overseen the filling of the great urns during the annual flood of John’s Crevasse, and twenty times have I returned with them empty. As the Column’s Pacesetter, I have been responsible for the well-being of the Zhuman Empire’s citizens settled along the Fifth Route, and have organised the defence against countless raiders, arbitrated disputes between settlements, maintained roads, collected taxes and tithes, and watched with joy as they prospered under my hand. Our people have been kept safe from harm and have acted with guided restraint and wisdom. Our people have grown, and their needs as well, yet the Water Witch does not allow me to bring even one more camel or cart. Last year, some villages’ stores had been empty for weeks before I reached them with life-giving moisture. In these villages, the strongest had taken their share, and the weakest were left without and survived by cutting down the slow-growing Saksak, which draws moisture from the night air. I cannot bring more water, and yet the people depend on me. I write this on the hundredth night of the Columns outward passage. More children have come of age than old ones have died, and so we have built a number of new homes. Water has been allocated them as necessary, but now we have nothing at all for the last in this row of villages. To arrive in a settlement without water, my throat is tight with shame and worry. Must we hope for rain? This far east, it is a possibility, but I can see that the pale yellow straw that passes for grazing is low and rain hasn’t come since I came by here last. To reduce my people to nomads again, forcing them to wander in uncertainty between ancient and muddy water holes, this is my only option. And the Water Empire will be diminished. But what about this book, found among strange ruins among the wandering dunes? It speaks of magic and mirrors, with strange words like Phlogiston and Aether. It hints at wondrous powers that multiply gold, turns men’s minds, and heals the sick. Could I use it to find a magic that saves my people?
- During nighttime levels, sun is collected only through sun-producing plants, e.g. Sun-shroom, or sun-containing tombstones in Dark Ages. In Plants vs. Zombies, the player can also get sun from zombies (Last Stand levels) and vases (Vasebreaker Endless). In Plants vs. Zombies 2, sun can also appear from tombstones in Dark Ages, Gold Tiles in Lost City, and vases in Vasebreaker.
- The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is almost perfectly spherical and consists of hot plasma interwoven with magnetic fields. It has a diameter of about 1,392,684 km (865,374 mi), around 109 times that of Earth, and its mass (1.989×1030 kilograms, approximately 330,000 times the mass of Earth) accounts for about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System. Chemically, about three quarters of the Sun's mass consists of hydrogen, while the rest is mostly helium. The remainder (1.69%, which nonetheless equals 5,600 times the mass of Earth) consists of heavier elements, including oxygen, carbon, neon and iron, among others. The Sun formed about 4.6 billion years ago from the gravitational collapse of a region within a large molecular cloud. Most of the matter gathered in the center, while the rest flattened into an orbiting disk that would become the Solar System. The central mass became increasingly hot and dense, eventually initiating thermonuclear fusion in its core. It is thought that almost all stars form by this process. The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star (G2V) based on spectral class and it is informally designated as a yellow dwarf because its visible radiation is most intense in the yellow-green portion of the spectrum, and although it is actually white in color, from the surface of the Earth it may appear yellow because of atmospheric scattering of blue light. In the spectral class label, G2 indicates its surface temperature, of approximately 5778 K (5505 °C), and V indicates that the Sun, like most stars, is a main-sequence star, and thus generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. In its core, the Sun fuses 620 million metric tons of hydrogen each second. Once regarded by astronomers as a small and relatively insignificant star, the Sun is now thought to be brighter than about 85% of the stars in the Milky Way, most of which are red dwarfs. The absolute magnitude of the Sun is +4.83; however, as the star closest to Earth, the Sun is the brightest object in the sky with an apparent magnitude of −26.74. The Sun's hot corona continuously expands in space creating the solar wind, a stream of charged particles that extends to the heliopause at roughly 100 astronomical units. The bubble in the interstellar medium formed by the solar wind, the heliosphere, is the largest continuous structure in the Solar System. The Sun is currently traveling through the Local Interstellar Cloud (near to the G-cloud) in the Local Bubble zone, within the inner rim of the Orion Arm of the Milky Way. Of the 50 nearest stellar systems within 17 light-years from Earth (the closest being a red dwarf named Proxima Centauri at approximately 4.2 light-years away), the Sun ranks fourth in mass. The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way at a distance of approximately 24000–26000 light-years from the galactic center, completing one clockwise orbit, as viewed from the galactic north pole, in about 225–250 million years. Since the Milky Way is moving with respect to the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) in the direction of the constellation Hydra with a speed of 550 km/s, the Sun's resultant velocity with respect to the CMB is about 370 km/s in the direction of Crater or Leo. The mean distance of the Sun from the Earth is approximately 1 astronomical unit (150,000,000 km; 93,000,000 mi), though the distance varies as the Earth moves from perihelion in January to aphelion in July. At this average distance, light travels from the Sun to Earth in about 8 minutes and 19 seconds. The energy of this sunlight supports almost all life[b] on Earth by photosynthesis,[28] and drives Earth's climate and weather. The enormous effect of the Sun on the Earth has been recognized since prehistoric times, and the Sun has been regarded by some cultures as a deity. An accurate scientific understanding of the Sun developed slowly, and as recently as the 19th century prominent scientists had little knowledge of the Sun's physical composition and source of energy. This understanding is still developing; there are a number of present day anomalies in the Sun's behavior that remain unexplained.
- The Sun is another one of Frankenstien's inventions. It does lives!
- A Sun Witch's dominion is any location that is brightly illuminated, such as in direct sunlight, under a spotlight, ect... Healing Burst (Su): You gain a healing burst that deals 1d6 positive energy to every creature within 5 feet of you. This increases by 1d6 every time you select this ability (Max 10d6). Creatures gain a will save for half damage. The area for this ability increases by 5 feet at 10th level, 15th level, and 20th level. Sun's Blessing (Su): Whenever you use positive energy to harm undead creatures, add your Witch level to the damage dealt. Blinding Flash (Su): As a standard action, you can emit a flash of light from your outstretched hand. The most powerful light emanates out 20 feet from you. Creatures with fewer Hit Dice than your Witch level within this area are blinded for 1d4 rounds unless they succeed at a Fortitude save. All creatures in this area are dazzled for a number of rounds equal to 1/2 your Witch level (minimum 1). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Intelligence modifier Shining Light(Sp): A number of times per day equal to 3+intelligence modifier, you can use daylight as the spell. Light Vision (su): You become immune to the blinded condition. Shining Light (Su): A number of times per day equal to 3+intelligence modifier, the Witch can choose to increase the size of a light effect such as daylight by 10 feet. Piercing Light(Su): A Witch can expend a prepared spell from her list of dominion spells to negate the casting of a spell with the Darkness Descriptor. The spell must be of the level of the spell being used to destroy it. Burning Rays(Su): A number of times per day equal to 3+intelligence modifier, the witch can choose to cast a spell with the light descriptor a full round action. If it has a duration of longer than instantaneous it deals 1d4 ice damage per round to any creature inside. At 10th level this increases to 1d6. if it is an instantaneous action it instead deals an additional +1 damage per two dice. At 10th level this becomes +1 per damage dice instead. Light Mastery: When you cast a spell that deals energy damage, you can change the type of damage dealt to Fire. This also changes the spell to have the light descriptor. Sunlight Transposition: A number of times per day equal to the witch's intelligence modifier, the witch can cast a dimension door spell. Upon using this she bursts into light and vanishes, appearing with another flash of light. At 15th level when a witch does this, creatures within 10 feet of her when she reappears must make a fortitude saving throw or be blinded for 1 round. By spending two uses of this ability, she can do it as an immediate action. Searing Light (Sp): A number of times per day equal to 3+Intelligence modifier, the Witch can use a Searing Light Spell using her witch level as the caster level. Light Burst Magic (Su): Once per day for every 3 levels you possess as a witch, you can choose to deal ice damage instead of any other energy damage from a spell with a burst, radius, column, or cylinder area. In addition, for 1 round per 3 witch levels, that area is treated as being effected by a daylight spell. Light Step (Su): By spending a standard action within an area of bright light, you can transport yourself up to 3,000 feet in any direction, so long as your final destination is another area of bright light that can cover your body. This can be done once per day per 4 witch levels you possess. Miasma (Ex): You can hold any sort of powdered poison to your lips and blow it into a fog, mist, or cloud, and cause every creature within the fog to need to make a fortitude saving throw or be effected by it. This costs 1 dose of poison for every 3 creatures effected. Wall of Light (Sp): Once per day for every 4 witch levels you possess, you can create a wall of light spell using your witch level as the caster level. Fire Shield (Sp): As a standard action you can use a Fire Shield spell using your witch level as the caster level. You can only use the Warm Shield option for this. Nimbus of Light (Su): You can emit a 30-foot nimbus of light for a number of rounds per day equal to your Witch level. This acts as a daylight spell. In addition, undead within this radius take an amount of damage equal to your Witch level each round that they remain inside the nimbus. Spells and spell-like abilities with the darkness descriptor are automatically dispelled if brought inside this nimbus. These rounds do not need to be consecutive. Day’s Resurgence (Su): You can restore a single creature as if it had just completed 8 hours of rest. It takes 10 minutes to use this power. If the use of this power is disrupted, it must be restarted, but it is not lost. At the end of the 10 minutes, a single willing creature that you have touched regains hit points as if it had rested for the night and may make new saving throws against effects that require a save once per day. The target does not suffer any negative effects if such saving throws are failed, but success counts toward removing the affliction (if possible). This ability does not allow a target to prepare spells an additional time per day. You can use this ability once per day. This can be used another time per day at 16th level and again at 20th level. Light of the World (Su): Once per week you can cast a daylight spell that lasts for 1 minute per level. This daylight spell covers 5 miles per witch level (Max 100 miles). Creatures within 100 feet of the caster are treated as being in sunlight for the purpose of weaknesses, damaging effects, or other racial abilities (Such as vampire weaknesses, or Racial or class abilities that involve sunlight or it being daytime). In addition, undead within this area take damage equal to 1/2 your witch level every round. Creatures within the 100 feet as well as the first 30 miles are treated as if being in a daylight spell. Spells and spell-like abilities with the darkness descriptor are automatically dispelled if brought inside this area. 31-60 miles out it is treated as bright light, however darkness spells can be cast as normal to cancel the effect for as long as the darkness remains. 61-100 feet out is dim light. Radiant Sunburst (Sp): Once per day you can cast a sunburst spell that deals maximum damage. In addition it's effects linger, dealing the damage again in the following round. Destroying Light (Su): Once per day for every 4 witch levels you possess, when you use a light spell that requires a touch or ranged touch attack, you can effect a number of targets equal to your intelligence modifier with the spell, no two of which can be further than 30 feet away from eachother. Light Dash (Sp): Once per day you can cast a Ride the lightning spell, however this deals half fire damage instead of electricity, and half divine or profane damage whenever you deal damage with it. 2nd—endure elements, 4th—heat metal, 6th—searing light, 8th—Wandering Star Modes, 10th—flame strike, 12th—fire seeds, 14th—sunbeam, 16th—sunburst, 18th—prismatic sphere.

- The Sun represents will, authority, and what you would be if you were able to "shine" unfettered by fears, material constraints, memories, people or other limitations. It is the prime indicator of who we are, what we want to become, and why we came here. Aspects to the Sun represent how our original will is modified by other factors. The house of the Sun shows the area of life in which we find the most opportunity to "shine". The Sun sign indicates the true personality, but not necessarily how the native appears or acts, or even their self image. In the birth chart, the Sun gives indicators as to the native's father and male figures in relationships. However, despite being mirrored in male authority figures, the nature of the Sun is more like a child in that it represents the source of creativity, joy and spontaneity. According to Marcus Manilius (1st century AD) in his epic (8000 verses) poem Astronomica, the Sun is benign and favourable, and presides over the head. It is usually thought to represent the conscious ego, the self, and the principles of creativity, spontaneousness, health and vitality - the life force. The Sun is the planetary ruler of Leo. In Chinese astrology, it represents Yang.
- The Sun is a star in the solar system. It is shown to be a living entity in Dr. Slump series and sometimes oversleeps.
