The sun appears yellow but it emits every color you see. We see things by the light they reflect. Some things reflect red...roses. Some reflect green...grass. If the sun didn't emit those wave lengths of light, we couldn't see them.

The colour of a star depends on it's temperature.

  • Blue > 30,000 Kelvin
  • Blue to blue white 10,000 -> 30,000 Kelvin
  • White 7,500 -> 10,000 Kelvin
  • Yellowish White 6,000 -> 7,500 Kelvin
  • Yellow 5,200 -> 6,000 Kelvin
  • Orange 3,700 -> 5,200 Kelvin
  • Red 1,000 < 3,700 Kelvin
  • Brown < 1,000 Kelvin
  • Black 0 Kelvin

The sun is a yellow star, with surface temperature of 5780K.

Because of atmospheric scattering, the color of the sun varies as seen from the surface of the Earth. But our eyes adjust so that it (almost) always appears to be white to us. You can't see this effect (it's not under conscious control) but you do see it in photographs ... a good photographer may change film a dozen times a day.

This is a subtractive effect, as the preferential scattering of blue light (causing the sky color) removes enough blue light to leave a residual reddishness that is perceived as yellow. (When low enough in the sky, the Sun appears orange or red, due to this scattering.)

Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays, in the range 10 nm to 400 nm, and energies from 3ev to 124 eV. It is so named because the spectrum consists of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than those that humans identify as the colour violet

The actual color of the Sun is white. The reason people see it orange, red or reddish orange is due to the way the sunlight hits Earth's atmosphere, which changes its apparent color.

Though we cannot see the suns core we can extrapolate that it is very much hotter than the surface we see. Consequently it must be much brighter and at a white heat.
