These stars, and our sun. shine because they give off great amounts of heat. The luminous parts of the sun consist largely of hydrogerf, but there are more than 60 other elements that we know exist in the sun. The surface temperature of the sun is somewhere between 9,450 degrees Fahrenheit and 11,070 degrees. And each square meter of the sun gives out 894,700,000 calories a min ute. If you tried to write down the total output in calories from the sun in one second. you would have to put it like this: 90,700,000,000,000,000,000,- - What nothing to do) with coldness.

At one time, it was believed that the matter in the sun was simply "burning up." But if this were so, the sun would have burned up millions of years ago So the theory today is that the sun's heat must come from some process that depends on the fact that matter is electri cal in nature. One such pro cess that releases energy is radioactivity. Or possibly heat and pressure in the sun may change matter into energy. When this takes place, a very small amount of matter can supply a great deal of energy. For example, one ounce of mat ter can yield enough energy to melt a million tons of rocks! If this is happening on the sun, then about 4,200,000 tons of matter are being converted into energy each second. But the and call it "cold slaw.")
