no the earth and the moon are not the same size the sun is about 100 times bigger than the earth
A white dwarf can be roughly the same size as Earth.
The sun is approximately 400 times the size of the moon, however, it is also approximately 400 times farther away. This relationship cancels out and makes the sun and the moon appear observationally to be the same size on earth.
The sun and the moon appear to be about the same size in the atmosphere during a solar eclipse due to a coincidence in their apparent sizes from Earth's perspective. The sun is much larger than the moon, but it is also much farther away, making them appear similar in size when viewed from Earth.
The sun is about 400 times larger than the moon, but it is also about 400 times farther away from Earth. This unique coincidence in size and distance creates the optical illusion that they appear to be the same size when viewed from Earth.
If the sun were the size of a human eyeball then Earth would be the size of a grain of fine sand.
no
Though the sun is bigger the moon is closer to earth creating the illusion that they are the same size. Hope this helped.

the moon is smaller but its closer. the sun is huge but its way farther away so that why they look the same size.

The gravity of the sun is more. The sun is the roughly the size of 946 Earths.
No way. The Earth is about 8,000 miles across and the sun is 865,000 miles across, over 100 times wider!
Even tho the Moon is much smaller than the Sun, they appear to be the same size in the say, because the Moon is so much closer to the earth.
The sun is millions of times bigger than the moon, but the moon is many times closer to Earth.
you can fit 1million planets the size of earth in the sun
