Aristarchus was the first do to so. Copernicus discovered the math was easier if he assumed the sun was the center, but I'm not sure how hard he pushed the theory. Galileo pretty much proved the sun was the center of the solar system. Of course, he thought the sun was the center of the universe. The realization it was not pretty much came just last century.
Mercury is 36 million miles from the Sun. Saturn is 888 million miles from the Sun. So therefore, Mercury is closer to the Sun than Saturn. The answer to Your Question is No.
Wear loose, lightweight, long-sleeved clothing in light colors to protect yourself from the sun's harmful UV rays. Don't forget a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher to shield your skin from sun exposure. Lastly, opt for breathable fabrics like cotton or linen to stay cool and comfortable in the sun.
The sun is brighter than welding. The sun's surface temperature reaches about 5,500 degrees Celsius, while welding temperatures can range from 1,500 to 3,000 degrees Celsius.
No, the two main gases in the Sun are hydrogen and helium. These two elements make up about 98% of the Sun's mass. Oxygen is present in much smaller quantities in the Sun's atmosphere.
Pretty much so
Km so eun sweet
very much so. actually no im pretty sure the sun is a ball of gases that is burning constently
I'm pretty sure it's because the Sun powers solar energy. Leading that the sun is heat. That's why temperatures get so high. So the Sun will be giving of heat.
No, the sun rotates about every 25 to 35 days, so we see all sides of the sun, but they all look pretty much the same.
A pretty place (eg. sun set, sun rise, ocean, or a pretty view from an mountain.
It's because the sun is so hot that its heat can reach earth. If you think about it it's pretty cool because were so far away but its heat can still reach us.
um... hydrogen is generally combustible... and it would deffinitely be on fire on the sun. so I would consider that pretty harmful...
Pretty much the same as yours, give or take the radius of the Earth. So the answer is: mean distance from the Sun + or - 6357 km. The Earth's mean distance from the Sun is about 149.6 million kilometers.
I don't think so. Planets are pretty well stuck in orbit around their sun.

Mercury's axial tilt is pretty much zero, so the surface point closest to the sun will always be on the equator, at the point directly facing the sun (which changes with Mercury's rotation and orbit).
