What occurs at the core of the sun?
During the early formation of the Sun, massive amounts of hydrogen and other "space" debris were coalesced together to form a protostar [See related link]. As more and more "stuff" was collected, the pressure in the centre of the protostar increased. When it reached a temperature of about 10 million degrees kelvin, nuclear fusion started. In nuclear fusion, hydrogen is fused into helium in a fairly inefficient rate (Something like 0.07%) giving heat off as a by product. This temperature dictates the size and colour of the Sun.
