Best Answer
  • The Sun measures 1.4 million km in diameter, while the Moon is only 3,474 km in diameter. The sun is 865,000 miles in diameter while the moon is only 2,200 miles in diameter.
  • This means the Sun is roughly 400 times larger than the Moon. Also, the Sun is around 400 times further away from earth than the Moon.
  • The sun would take about 65 million moons to fill the same space as the sun.
  • The moon is small enough that it is caught in earth's gravitation pull, but the sun is massive enough to pull the earth along in its orbit.
