Rafael read the following information on the NASA website while researching for a report about the sun. The sun is a star, a hot ball of glowing gases at the heart of our solar system. Its influence extends far beyond the orbits of distant Neptune and Pluto. Without the sun’s intense energy and heat, there would be no life on Earth. And though it is special to us, there are billions of stars like our sun scattered across the Milky Way galaxy. If the sun were as tall as a typical front door, the Earth would be the size of a U. S. nickel. The temperature at the sun’s core is about 27 million degrees Fahrenheit.
