What is sun posin?
In space, the position of any of the objects in space is relative to other objects. There is no way to state the Sun's position. On the other hand, it is easy to tell where the planets are, relative to the Sun's position, so we can easily tell where each planet is right this second relative to the Sun. We simply cannot tell where the Sun is - just its distance from other space objects.
