The Sun has a diameter of 1.392 x 10^6 Km which is about 109 times larger than the Earth.

You could fit about 1,300,000 Earths inside the Sun.

The Sun is an average sized star. In comparison to the largest star [See related question] our Sun is small in comparison.

The largest crater on the moon is on the side we cannot see, and is named the South Pole - Aitken Basin. It is 2240km in width, and 13 kms deep. This is also the largest known crater in our solar system.

The largest crater visible to us is the Bailly crater, which is 26 000 square miles in size.

This not the same answer you gave before in another area and to the same questgion. You stated a completely different name and that is was only 184 miles across.

The Sun is 875,000 miles across, though scientists usually use kilometers, in which case it is 1,392,000 kilometers across. It is also very heavy. To write its weight in kilograms (1kg = 2 pounds, more or less) you write 2 followed by 30 zeros!

Stars come in many different sizes; the Sun is a yellow dwarf star. Sizes range from neutron stars which are a few miles in diameter (10 or so; around 12 km radius) up to VY Canis Majoris, the largest star currently known (estimated to be about 2000 times larger than the Sun).

The Earth is about 3.7 times larger than the Moon in diameter and about 50 times greater in terms of volume.

  • Earth's radius is 6,378 km; Moon's is 1,737 km, 27.23% of the radius of Earth
  • Earth's mass 5.974×1024 kg; Moon's is 7.35×1022 kg, 1.23% of the mass of Earth
  • Earth's average density is 5.5 g/cm3; Moon's is 3.4 g/cm3, 61.82% of the average density of Earth

The mass of the Moon is about 1.22% of Earth's mass (Moon: 7.35 x 1022kg; Earth 5.97 x 1024kg).

The area of the Moon compared to Earth is only 7.4%

About four times bigger than the full Moon looks from the Earth! The biggest difference is that the Moon is in a different place in the sky each day, from Earth. But on the Moon, the Earth appears to hover, almost motionlessly, in the lunar sky. During the course of the 29-day "day" on the Moon, the Earth would appear to move, very slowly, across a small area of the sky. A restaurant or apartment on the Moon with an Earth view would ALWAYS have an Earth view!

The most prominent and largest crater on the Moon (and possibly in the Solar System) is the South Pole-Aitken basin [See related link]. It is an impact crater roughly 2,500 km in diameter and 13 km deep.

The largest crater on the Moon, which also has the distinction of being one of the largest known craters in the Solar System (Mars does have a bigger one, but it is quite eroded), is the South Pole-Aitken basin. It is on the far side, between the South Pole and equator, and is some 2,240 km in diameter and 13 km in depth. Prominent impact basins on the near side include Imbrium, Serenitatis, Crisium, and Nectaris.

The sun is a medium small star

Compared to other stars is is not very impressive

The Moon has approximately 1/4 Earth's diameter, 1/50 Earth's volume, and 1/80 Earth's mass. Earth is very dense overall (it is the densest planet in the Solar System), but the Moon is light for its size. The difference is partly because Earth has a large core of iron and other heavy metallic elements, while the Moon has only a small core, if it has a core at all. The Moon's surface gravity is 1/6 of Earth's, and escape velocity from the surface is about 1/5 of Earth's.

What is the deepest crater?

The largest impact basin on the Moon is the far-side South Pole-Aitken, which is 1,400 miles (2,250 km) in diameter and on average 39,000 ft (12,000 m) deep below its rim. This is the largest and deepest such crater known in the Solar System.
