The Sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
a gigantic nuclear furnace.
Where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees.
The
Sun is hot,
the
Sun is not
a
place where we could live.
But
here on Earth
there'd
be no life
without the light it gives.
We
need its light.
We
need its heat.
The
sunlight that we see,
the sunlight comes from our own Sun's atomic energy.
(refrain)
The
Sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
a
gigantic nuclear furnace.
Where
hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees.
The
Sun is hot...
The
Sun is so hot that everything on it is a gas--
aluminum,
copper, iron, and many others.
The
Sun is large...
If the Sun were hollow, a million Earths would fit
inside.
And
yet, it is only a middle-size star.
The
Sun is far away--
about 93 million miles away, and that's why it looks so
small.
For
even when it's out of sight,
the Sun shines night and day.
We
need its heat, we need its light
The
sunlight that we see,
the sunlight comes from our own Sun's atomic energy.
Scientists have found that the Sun is a huge atom-
smashing
machine.
The heat and light of the Sun are caused by nuclear
reactions
between
hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon, and helium.

The
Sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
a
gigantic nuclear furnace.
Where
hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees.
