8 Fun Sun FactsThere’s a lot about the sun you probably don’t know!

1. Temperature

At its core, the sun has

a temperature of 15

million Kelvin, which is

27 million degrees

Fahrenheit.

Its surface temperature,

however, is a little

cooler at 9,932 degrees

Fahrenheit.

2. Age

The sun is 4.5 billion years old and scientists

speculate it will exist in its present form for about

5 billion more years before running out of

hydrogen.

3. Solar flares

Solar flares are sudden, brief explosions of

intense, high-energy radiation from the sun’s

surface. They are caused by magnetic fields on

the sun colliding together.

4. Mass

Scientists have established the sun as having

the largest mass in our solar system

5. Solar wind

The sun emits a stream of charged particles (in

addition to heat and light) called solar wind,

which causes the following:

Radio interference at certain times

The Aurora Borealis (aka the Northern Lights)

The tails of comets

The trajectory of spacecraft to change

6. Solar eclipse

A solar eclipse happens when Earth passes the

shadow of the moon. A total solar eclipse

happens only during a new moon, which is when

the moon is directly between the Earth and sun.

7. Weight

A person who weighs

100 pounds on Earth

will weigh 2,700 pounds

on the sun.

To calculate your

weight on the sun,

multiply your actual,

current weight by 27.

8. Solar energy

The sun’s energy is so powerful that it can be

harnessed by solar panels and converted into

electricity.
