Even so‚ it is more than 1‚392‚000 km (865‚000 mi) across — more than 100 times the diameter of Earth. Its mass equals that of 333‚420 Earths! It resembles a huge furnace‚ fired by nuclear energy at its core. The tremendous energy produced is transferred outward‚ away from the core‚ in a process known as convection. Patches of gas heat and rise toward the surface

The characters are loosely drawn‚ not often given space to comment on anything other than their immediate world and the complications of the relationships through which it is structured. The scenes are full of confrontational situations‚ often framed around a character addressing another with no response and at times this creates scenes

The Moon goes through a cycle as it orbits the Earth. From Earth‚ we can see the Moon’s phases even though the Moon doesn’t change. The Moon phases are the different stages of the Moon as it orbits Earth. This cycle is known as the Phases of the Moon. As the Moon circles Earth‚ the amount of light we see changes. These changes in light that we see are known as phases. As the Moon orbits around the Earth‚ the changing of light is known as waxing and waning. The phases have to do with the relativity
