In short, the sun heats the earth with, of course, sunlight. It also allows plants to use photosynthesis, a process that feeds the plant.

Without the sun, the earth wouldn't be dark. The earth wouldn't be there. If the sun was no longer around, the milisecond it left, the earth would freeze. If it blew up, so would the Milky Way, our galaxy.

What is the address space?

it all depends from where you are asking. in general, earth is fixed around the sun, so the sun's space address is more useful. if you know that the sun is in the Orion arm of the milky way galaxy, then you can see that earth is the third planet from the sun, and 1 AU from the sun defined as astronomical unit the earth-sun distance. we are never fixed in one constellation as we move through space, but from our closest neighbors(Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Procyon etc), we (the Sun) appears as a 1st magnitude star in the Orion constellation or there abouts.
