The Sun is primarily composed of hydrogen (about 74%) and helium (about 24%), with trace amounts of heavier elements. These gases exist in a plasma state due to the extremely high temperatures, allowing them to glow brightly. The core of the Sun reaches temperatures around 15 million degrees Celsius, while the surface temperature is about 5,500 degrees Celsius, contributing to the emission of light and heat. Overall, the Sun contains an immense amount of glowing gases, with its mass being approximately 1.989 x 10^30 kilograms.
The Sun is a ball of hot, glowing gases that do not have a distinct solid surface like planets. The boundary where the Sun's gases become less dense is known as the photosphere, but it's not a solid surface. It appears solid in images due to the way light is emitted and scattered by the gases in this outer layer.
Glowing colors in the polar atmospheres, known as the auroras, are caused by charged particles from the sun interacting with gases in Earth's atmosphere. When these particles collide with gases like oxygen and nitrogen, they emit light in different colors depending on the type of gas and the altitude of the collision.
The sun is a hot ball of glowing gases, primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. It does not have a solid surface, so it does not have a texture like a solid object would. Instead, it emits light and heat due to nuclear fusion reactions happening at its core.
The ball of dirty ice orbiting the sun is a comet. Comets are made up of dust, rock, and frozen gases such as water, methane, and ammonia. When they get closer to the sun, they heat up and release gas and dust, creating a glowing tail.
A comet is made up of frozen gases, rock particles, and cosmic dust. As a comet gets closer to the sun, the heat causes the frozen gases to vaporize, creating a glowing coma around the nucleus.
Sun spots and prominences.
Stars like our sun.
glowing is energy for the star so that is why they have light.
Not exactly. One reason Venus is bright is because it's so close to the Sun. Obviously, Venus appears much brighter when it's near Earth in its orbit. Yes, the atmosphere of Venus is important too. It does reflect a lot of the Sun's light. But Venus hasn't got "glowing gases". It's mainly just the clouds in the atmosphere that reflect a lot of sunlight.
Comets are composed of ice, frozen gases, rocks, and dust. When they orbit closer to the sun, they form a glowing coma and a tail as the ice and gases vaporize.

A comet's tail is long and glowing because it contains gases, dust, and debris that are illuminated by the Sun as the comet travels through space. The tail always points away from the Sun due to the solar wind pushing the materials in the tail.
"Comets are cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock, and dust that orbit the Sun. When frozen, they are the size of a small town. When a comet's orbit brings it close to the Sun, it heats up and spews dust and gases into a giant glowing head larger than most planets." -NASA
yes
The bright glowing gases at the central part of a comet are called the coma. They are produced as the comet comes closer to the sun and the heat causes the ice and other volatile compounds on the comet's surface to sublimate, creating a cloud of gas and dust around the nucleus.
A comet has a tail composed of gases and dust. As a comet travels through space, it heats up, causing the gases and dust to vaporize and form a glowing tail that points away from the Sun due to solar wind.
