solar model

The solar model refers to our understanding of the Sun's structure and behavior. It describes the Sun as a massive ball of gas, primarily hydrogen and helium, undergoing nuclear fusion at its core. This process releases energy, producing light and heat, which support life on Earth. The solar model also includes aspects like solar flares and spots, which are disturbances in the Sun's magnetic field. This model helps us comprehend not just the Sun's internal workings but also its influence on the solar system and climate on Earth.
