(SCIENCE IS A LIAR) That's what you do twice a day everyday because you have control over your mind and body, ha, ha, ha, the Devil has you by the tail, "pun intended!" The surface of the Sun consists of hydrogen (about 74% of its mass, or 92% of its volume), helium (about 24% of mass, 7% of volume), and trace quantities of other elements, including iron, nickel, oxygen, silicon, sulfur, magnesium, carbon, neon, calcium, and chromium.[11] Yes of course you've been to the sun and drew these conclusions with the vast testing and research done there. The Sun has a spectral class of G2V. G2 means that it has a surface temperature of approximately 5,780 K (5,500 °C) giving it a white color that often, because of atmospheric scattering, appears yellow when seen from the surface of the Earth. Yes you planted the thermometer fresh out of your ass and into the sun and got that reading when you were there testing the gases and its physiological make-up! When the Sun is low in the sky, even more light is scattered so that the Sun appears orange or even red.[12] There is no such thing as a low sky, maybe its time for rehab! This means that it generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. Fusion hey? What kind of a reactor does the sun use to control and sustain a steady flow of this fusion from not becoming a chain reaction causing an explosion, such as nuke bombs? How does hydrogen altered in a gaseous form and liquid make it so far away and continue to be made in such form? Since hydrogen doesn't exist on earth as a gas, liquid or solid, that it must be separated from other elements. you should stop posting OP.. You should get an education, stop reading Pinocchio science, that outta do it! after the earth is plate now sun not a star you never go at school that suck Judging by how you write school wasn't your friend! :5: OP is winning with simple solid logic, great Job OP |

Don't let the Greeks get you! Yet again, here is Punisher with another bullshit post. Again, you will NEVER be taken seriously with this pseudo science by anyone unless you can provide: 1: Verifiable data about your education such as diplomas held (other than your GED) and the school(s) from which you obtained them ( other than a Cracker Jack box). 2: Research data that is your own. See, the data against you is accepted in the scientific community and independent research is ongoing but it is acceptable to cite the research of others to support your theory when you are in-line with conventional science. In your case, you are fighting an uphill battle and will NEED verifiable and reproducible data that supports your theory other than copying and pasting mismatched pieces from scientific websites out of context. 3: At least 1 article of your own that has been reviewed by your peers and published in some sort of scientific journal. This is just a small example as to how REAL science works, it isn't some mumbo-jumbo witch doctor crap. Real science is observable and experimental with reproducible results. Keep trying Punisher, but no one really cares about your theories nor will you get conventional science to convert over.

(SCIENCE IS A LIAR) Quoting: Anonymous Coward 643129 Simplified explanation on a page for children. This is what an actual journal abstract on the subject looks like: [link to www.agu.org] Hydrogen is released by several natural processes. The majority of it soon drifts away or recombines, meaning the average amount in our atmosphere remains low (under one part per million). Which all is just towards showing you got the facts wrong again. It actually doesn't matter a whit towards the reason you brought it up. The Sun is not fueled by anything that is in the Earth's atmosphere. The Sun is a ball of (mostly) hydrogen and helium, at high temperatures and pressures; meaning the usual form of these gases is neither gas, liquid, nor solid phases, but as plasma (and, in the center of the Sun, metallic). The extremely hot hydrogen plasma that makes up the visible surface of the sun (the chromosphere) can be observed readily with a $2 tool. That is all it takes to figure out that there is hydrogen in the sun. This form of observation goes back to the 19th century and is performed by schoolchildren (in my day, with the aid of Bunsen Burners) every day. But I suspect the underlying science is a little too complex for you at the moment. Incidentally, the reason we call the element "helium" what we do, is that it was first discovered in spectrographic studies of the Sun; before it had been chemically isolated for study on Earth. "Helium" comes from "Helios" -- the Greek name for the Sun. |
