Fun Fact #004 - The solar dish
Sol, also known as "The Sun", or just "Sun".
With a mass of around 330.000 times that of Earth Sol accounts for 99.86% of the mass in our solar system.
Did you know that the Sun is made up of mostly hydrogen? 75% consist of hydrogen with the rest of its mass attributed to Helium, Oxygen, Carbon, Nitrogen, Silicon, Magnesium, Neon, Iron, and Sulfur.
The Sun is large enough that it could be home to approximately 1.3 million Earths.
If the Earths retained their spherical shape, then 960.000 would fit.
Can you visualize that number of Earths?
