What would the sun look like from the furthermost planet in your solar system?
Not much bigger or brighter than the other stars in the sky
Why does the sun appear bigger and brighter than the other stars?
The sun appears bigger and brighter than other stars because it is much closer to us than any other stars.
Why is the sun so much bigger and brighter than other stars?
The sun only appears that way because it is much closer to us than any other star.
How is the light from our sun different from other stars?
It isn't. The sun appears bigger and brighter than other stars only because is is much closer to us.
How is the Sun different from every other object in your solar system?
Well... not much. It's brighter, hotter, bigger, and it can make you go blind.
Why sun is a star?
The Sun is just like other stars - some are bigger, some are smaller, some are brighter or less bright - but the Sun is similar in size, composition and behavior to stars. The only difference is that it is so near that it looks much, much brighter.

Why does the sun look brighter than other stars?
Simple, even though the sun is dimmer then many stars, it is over a thousand times closer to the earth and thus is larger to us and brighter
Why do some stars appear bigger and brighter than others?
A stars brightness depends on two factors; its distance from us and its actual brightness (absolute magnitude). The actual brightness of a star depends on various factors, such as its mass, its temperature and its age.Consider two stars of the same actual brightness (absolute magnitude) - if one of them is much closer, then is will be brighter than the further one. It will appear brighter, even though it would be the same side by side - it can be said to be apparently brighter (higher apparent magnitude) due to its distance.A:They appear bigger and brighter because they really are bigger and brighter, but even if they are not bigger and brighter it could be because they are closer.

Why is the sun brighter than all other stars?
The sun only appears brighter than other stars because it is much closer to us.
Why doesn't the sun appear the same as other stars?
The sun appears bigger and brighter than other stars because it is much closer to us. The next nearest star is about a quarter of a million times farther away.
