Its mass and its resultant gravitational pull are the prime influences the sun exerts on the planets. The sun controls the orbits of the planets by the very fact of its existence. If the sun did not exist, if it were not as massive as it is, if it weren't there to exert its strong gravitational pull, the planets would simply fly out into space and find the next, closest large mass with which to associate.
