@MAstronomers Size of Sun compared with other stars.
@MAstronomers No Source. Is it the Sun? The Earth is not that close to Sun or any star. Prominences have different sizes. No actual measurements. Scale may be wrong without details.
@MAstronomers As #SheilaJacksonLee said, it's "ALMOST TOO HOT to get close to it".
@MAstronomers are we scaled in on distance too in this picture. clearly not?
@MAstronomers If the earth was the size of the sun there would be no such thing as a round earth.
@MAstronomers Now think about how far away we have to be for the Sun to be so small in the sky. That puts the vastness of space in perspective.
@MAstronomers Massive sun there! No wonder why we feel like we are getting roasted.
@MAstronomers and yet it appears and acts small and local
