No.
A sun is an astronomical body that is, in its core, fusing lighter elements into heavier ones. This fusion process releases energy which causes the star to emit light.
Suns can be of vairious sizes and two suns can orbit one another in a manner similar to a planet and a star.
However whatever the orbital configuration, if a body is producing light by means of thermonuclear fusion, it is a star.

∙ 15y agoThe Sun's radiation is certainly the main source of heat for the inner planets like Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. But the gas giant planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune each radiate away more energy than they receive from the Sun.

∙ 8y agoNo, it's not a planet. It is a star. The Sun is a medium-sized yellow star.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe answer to that is no... because first of all, the sun is just a giant exploded star. So, no, the sun is NOT the first planet in the solar system - it's not even a planet!

The Sun is located slightly off-center from the middle of each planet's orbit?
The sun is located at one of the focii of the ellipse that describes the orbit of a planet. The focus of an ellipse is not in the geometric center but on the major axis of the ellipse.
What is the difference between the rotation axis and the axis And the equator?
rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun
What is the difference between the rotation rotation axis and the equated?
rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun
What is the difference between rotation rotation axis and the equator?
rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun
How far is the planet Venus from the sun in AU?
Venus is 0.723332 AU (semi-major axis) from the Sun.

Which planet revolves around the sun than rotates an its axis?
That would be planet Venus.
How far is the planet Venus from the sun in AU?
Venus is 0.723332 AU (semi-major axis) from the Sun.
What is a planetary axis?
A planetary axis is the imaginary line or pole through the center of the planet which defines the point around which the planet rotates, or spins.
Is every planet rotates on its axis and revolves around the sun?
sure
Is mercury the fastest moving planet around the sun but the slowest rotating around its axis?
Mercury is the fastest moving planet around the sun. It is second slowest to rotate about its axis, Venus being the slowest.
Define orbit and axis of the planets?
The orbit of a planet is the path it takes on its journey around the sun. The axis is an imaginary line through the planet from pole to pole about which the planet revolves or spins.
All of the planet in your solar system do what the same?
Orbit the sun and rotate on their axis.
