Best Answer

About 1.3 million Earth's can fit in the Sun.



The sun has a diameter of 865000 miles or 1.39 million kilometers. Its diameter is 109 times the diameter of earth. The volume of the sun is therefore 1093 (1 295 000) times that of Earth.


it takes 100 earths to make the diameter of the sun, and takes 1,000,000 earths to fill the sun.

If we were to treat this whimsical question seriously, the quest for a solution

might go something like this:

-- The volume of a sphere is 4/3 (pi) (radius)3 . This shows that the volumes

of two spheres are in proportion to the cubes of their radii.

-- Earth radius = 3,970 miles. Solar radius = 432,450 miles.

-- The ratio of their cubes is ( 3,970/432,450)3 = 0.000000774 (rounded)

If we conveniently ignore the relative compressibilities of the sun's and Earth's

substance, and consider each be a homogeneous solid, then that number is the

number of suns that can fit into the volume of the Earth. Of course, the Earth

would have to be scooped out of its shell first to make room for the stuffing,

like a deviled egg or sweet Polish gefilte fish.
