The Sun is the star at the center of our Solar System and contains more than 99% of its total mass. At an average distance of approximately 149.6 million kilometers from Earth, it provides the energy that drives Earth's climate and supports life. Its visible surface, known as the photosphere, is constantly changing due to magnetic activity, creating features such as sunspots and solar prominences.
