The Sun
Hi all! 
In my Astronomy book, they teach you about the sun and planets and stuff!!! It’s really, really cool!!!! Here’s something I wrote for the sun!
The Sun
Did you know it’s not good to stare at the sun? Why? First, I’ll tell you some facts and
then I’ll tell you why it’s not good to stare! The sun is very active. The fire on the sun is
jumping, hopping and rolling about, just like something a campfire would do. Sunspots
are cooler than the rest of the sun. Sun spots are 4,500 degrees, but that is still very cool
compared to the rest of the sun. Many scientists believe that sunspots affect the weather
here on earth. Now, do you want to know why it’s not good to look at the sun? Good!
Even though the sun is 92,935,700 miles away it’s still very bad to stare. Why?
It will ruin your retina. Pronounced ret-tin-uh. The sun is about a million times brighter t
light bulb. And, looking at a light bulb hurts, doesn’t it? The sun is so bright, that if you
stand on Pluto, the farthest planet away from the sun, it will still hurt your eyes! Now do
see not to stare at the sun? It will hurt your eyes very bad!
