Can you see sun in space?

Originally Answered: Can you see the sun from space? You absolutely can see the sun from space. That ball of helium and hydrogen makes up 99.8% of the mass of our solar system, so its just not possible to miss it or it being hidden.

Are we inside the sun?

We live inside the sun. Normally we think of the sun as being that big, hot ball of light 93 million miles (150 million km) away. But actually, the sun’s outer atmosphere extends far beyond its visible surface. In that sense, we definitely live inside the sun.

Can you see a fart in space?

Is any planet bigger than the sun?

To begin with planets, as that is the easiest question to answer, there are no planets bigger than the Sun or even close to the size of the Sun. The Sun has about 1000 times the mass of Jupiter. Therefore no planet could ever be remotely close to the same mass as the sun. The sun is what we call a yellow dwarf star.

Why is the sun black in space?

The daytime sky is blue because light from the nearby Sun hits molecules in the Earth’s atmosphere and scatters off in all directions. At night, when that part of Earth is facing away from the Sun, space looks black because there is no nearby bright source of light, like the Sun, to be scattered.
