The Ultimate Revelation Of The Sun.

The Sun is the largest object in the Solar System. It contains approximately 98% of the total mass of the Solar system mass. The Sun appears to have been active for about 4.6 billion years, and has enough fuel to go on for another 5 billion years or so.

Parts of the Sun :

●Solar core: It has temperature of about 14 million °C.

●Photosphere: It is about 340 miles thick and temperatures range from 5500°C to 6000°C. It is made of churning gases.

●Corona: It is the outer most layer of the Sun, and is only visible during solar eclipse

●Solar Flare: Explosions can reach a maximum speed of 900 km/s and are more violent and spectacular.

EXTRA KNOWLEDGE

1. The sun blows a constant stream of invisible particles out into space in all the directions known as solar wind.

2. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) weighs about two tons and with its solar panels extended it stands about 25 feet across. The spacecraft has 12 scientific instruments collecting information about sunspots, the corona, solar flares and vibrations deep in the Sun's interior.

3. A Sunspot are a small, dark patches region on the Sun's photosphere that is cooler and darker than the surrounding material.

All About Space-Part1

Space is all around us. The universe is so enormous, it is impossible to imagine. The universe includes almost everything we can think about, it is very mysterious. All these heavenly bodies like the sun, stars, the moon, and our earth, along with other planets, are a part of the universe.

All About Space-Part II

Composition of Space The space consists of three types of substances: Normal matter, dark matter, and dark energy. The normal matter consists of atoms that makes up the stars, planets, animals and every other thing in the space. This is the distribution of the components present in the space. The blue color (69.86%) represent Dark Energy. Dark Energy is responsible for the expansionof our universe. The red color (0.6%) reresent Heavy Elements and Neutrino. The pink color (0.6%) represent Stars. The green color (3.99%) represent Freen Hydrogen and Helium. Hydrogen and Helium are the two most abundant gases in the space. The yellow color(24.95%) represent Dark Matter. Dark Matter that constitutes 25% of the space refers to the matter that does not emit light, and cannot be seen. But its presence can be determined by the gravitational effects on other bodies.
