  17. The first cool thing that I learned about the sun on the website was that a long time ago the Aztecs believed that they had a sun God and it's name was Tonatiah.The second cool thing I learned about the sun was that the sun's surface(photosphere)is covered in something called granulation patterns.

  20. From looking at this website, I learned that the Sun is the closest star to Earth, and that the Sun is a medium size star that isn't the brightest color.

    1) The Sun is the closest star to Earth because it is the bigest one and the brightest to light a whole 1/2 day for us.
    2) The Least brightest to the most: red,yellow,whiteish,white/blue.
