1. The sun is approximately 4.5 billion years old. The age of the sun is estimated the mass of the star (SunTrek 1). The difference between the sun and the other stars is the distance. The sun is 8 light minutes away while the other stars are light-years away. The suns energy is generated from nuclear reactions. The sun will be able to generate energy for the Earth for another 5 to 6 billion years to come (How the sun Works 1). The sun is not burning. The sun undergoes nuclear fusion and it will

why did the world become so unequal? In the mid-1600s the Europeans first arrive at the southernmost tip of South Africa. The southernmost tip of Africa and Europe are almost identical in latitude‚ with Europe in the northern hemisphere and South Africa in the southern hemisphere. At equal latitudes‚ both locations have relatively identical climates. This made it extremely easy for Europeans to settle and adapt comfortably. Their arrival forced many natives of the land to leave. Also‚ the

main part of the recorder and recording card (a chemically treated piece of paper) is slipped under the sphere to record the sun-shine duration data. This device should be placed in an open place where latitude will be set by moving the bowl until it is correctly placed in the correct latitude. Longitude is fixed by placing the device in the north south direction as accurately as possible with the help of a compass. A recording card is inserted to give a trial run and checked whether the burning
