Inner Solar System Orbit The Path of Orbit

The Sun The sun is the biggest, brightest, and hottest object in the solar system. The sun is the biggest, brightest, and hottest object in the solar system. The sun is an ordinary star. The sun is an ordinary star. The sun is made of about 70% hydrogen and 28% helium. The sun is made of about 70% hydrogen and 28% helium.

The Sun A sun-centered solar system is called heliocentric A sun-centered solar system is called heliocentric The planets orbit in an ellipse – an elongated circle The planets orbit in an ellipse – an elongated circle Sunspots are areas of gas that are cooler than surrounding gases Sunspots are areas of gas that are cooler than surrounding gases Solar flares are explosions of hydrogen gas Solar flares are explosions of hydrogen gas Nuclear fusion is what powers the sun Nuclear fusion is what powers the sun
