The sun is our beging and our end. The sun provides us light, it holds us in orbit, and it protects us from being demolished from lagre meteors. The sun is the boss of our solar system and comprises nearly all of the mass.
Our sun, a great many of civilizations have worshiped this great god known as helious or sol. There is good reason for their worship, the sun encompasses over 99% of all the matter in our solar system. It is 75% hydrogen and 25% helium. The sun converts helium into hydrogen in a nuclear process called fusion. Think of it Hydogen supplies all that heat and light. Although the sun seems to burn on eternally the hydrogen will one day run out. Although the earth has its own thermal heat life will ultimatly end as we know it. Plus nobody knows what will happen of the sun when this happens. What will bond the remaining elements together without the fusion process. If the suns hydrogen is turned to helium what will that leave man with?
The sun also holds all the planets in orbit.
