Our Sun And Earth



The Sun has been here for at least 5.9 billion years, and we have been here for 4.8 billion years. I asked myself why is the Sun been here longer than the planets if it was born with the solar system? Our Sun was born with the rest of the solar system and if there was no Sun we would not be here.Our beloved Sun is named after the Roman god Sol or Helios god of light.
The Sun's Core is that big that it is still bigger than 8,000 Jupiter's.The core is a heat source for the Sun's solar energy and give us light and life.

The black dot is actually called a sunspot.Some sunspots can be bigger than Earth or maybe Neptune. Sunspots are eruptions happing in the radioactive layer which is below the Sun's surface. The sunspots gases can burst as far as your finger but they are very wide.A sun flare is a huge eruption releasing big amounts of gas into space and being pulled back into the Sun.It is where the most violent eruptions in the solar system are mainly recorded and the biggest was in 2007.

The Sun was born through a cloud of dust and it was hot. As it got hotter everything started to collide into each other forming a small little baby Sun.Then gas and ice were formed into giant gas planets. Jupiter and Saturn were first two planets then Uranus,Neptune,Mercury,Venus and Earth the biggest inner planet.

Earth is home to life and is one of the youngest planet but is older than Venus and Mars.The Sun is what gives us light and energy so that the plants can grow and give us oxygen.What is a atmosphere? What does it do? Do you know? Well it is a force that traps the Sun's energy and it helps us breath. It also retains gases and energy by it gravitation pull.

What makes Earth suitable for life? Well we have a strong atmosphere, air and water.The plants are what gives us oxygen to breath.Also the Sun gives us light and heat.What makes Earth suitable for life? Well we have a strong atmosphere, air and water.The plants are what gives us oxygen to breath.Also the Sun gives us light and heat.

Earth is the biggest terrestrial planet meaning a rocky body.Earth also has the highest density of the four planets,with the highest surface gravity and is probably the only one with active tectonic plates.

Our water is a layer that spreads through Earth and the Sun is what picks up the water then it turns in to rain or clouds.
