The Sun is the star at the center of our solar system – this includes the inner solar system which consists of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, the asteroid belt except Ceres which is considered as a dwarf planet such as Pallas, Davida, Eunomia and Juno and the outer solar system which consists of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and the minor planet called Centaur.

The Sun is made of different chemicals such as oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, magnesium, neon, iron and sulfur but it is mostly composed of 70% hydrogen and 28% helium. Aside from these chemicals, the Sun has several structures and these are: the Core, the Radiative zone, the Tachocline, the Convective zone, the Photosphere, the Atmosphere and the Photons and neutrinos.
