For a start, the Sun emits energy; the laws of Thermodynamics state that that can't go on forever. Beyond that, astronomers know quite a deal about what goes on in stars such as the Sun; specifically, hydrogen is converted to helium, in a process known as fusion. After a while (a few billion years in a star with the mass of our Sun), the star will run out of its fuel (the hydrogen). Helium can then be converted to heavier elements, but this doesn't last forever, either.
No.
The average distance between the Earth and sun, in round figures, is 93 million miles. Astronomers tend to maintain the same distance from the sun that ordinary people do.
Cus they is BOSS
Indian astronomers had extensive knowledge about the solar system, including the sun. They knew that the sun is a star and not a deity, and they accurately calculated its distance from the Earth. They also understood the nature of solar eclipses and had developed methods to predict their occurrence. Additionally, they made observations regarding the movement and positions of planets within the solar system.
round body and moved around the Sun
There is no answer
From observation and mathematical models.
Sunspots rotate at different speeds.
SSo the astronomers can tell us what is happening to the sun. that good enough? :)
Astronomers think the sun will die in 2012
While it is difficult to know exactly what is going on inside the sun, scientists make educated guesses. They have radio and optical telescopes and other instruments monitoring the sun all the time.
Parallax is the method that astronomers use to measure the distance from the sun to the earth.
GEOCENTRIC THEORY You already know as a fact that the Earth and all solar system bodies orbit the Sun but for centuries astronomers believed that the Sun and planets orbited the Earth. To us it looks natural.
No. 1) the sun puts out a finite amount of energy. 2) the sun has a finite life-time. (about another 5 billion years).
The specialists called solar astronomers or helio astronomers study the sun in the subject of helio astronomy.
