The Sun, also known as Sol, is the star at the center of our solar system. This gigantic ball of hot, glowing gases makes life on Earth possible by giving us heat and light. Sol’s gravitational pull also keeps every planet, asteroid, and comet in its place within the solar system, fostering a stable environment for life to evolve and thrive. As the ultimate provider of energy, Sol is the driving force behind all forms of life and the primary source of Earth’s climate and weather.#25#
