Our Sun, as with all main-sequence stars, is heated by the energy of fusing hydrogen atom to make helium atoms. The gigantic gravity of a main-sequence star causes hydrogen atoms to be smashed together, or 'fused'. The huge heat that results keeps the Sun puffed up to its huge size. In another 4.5 billion years, more or less, the hydrogen will be largely used up, and the Sun will shrink to a point that helium atoms are smashed together, creating lithium atoms.
When all the lithium atoms have been largely smashed together and used up, the Sun will shrink again, and beryllium atoms will result.
What else can I help you with?
Is the sun fueled by fusion?
Yes the sun is fueled by fusion.
Will the sun break up into small parts?
No. The sun is firmly held together by gravity.
What properties does the sun have in common with other stars?
The Sun is similar to other stars in that it is a massive ball of hot gas fueled by nuclear fusion, emitting light and heat. It also has a magnetic field, sunspots, and solar flares like other stars. Additionally, the Sun follows the same lifecycle stages as other stars, starting as a protostar, then becoming a main sequence star, and eventually ending its life as a white dwarf.
What day was the first liquid fueled rocket launched?

Is the sun fueled by fusion?
Yes the sun is fueled by fusion.
What is fueled by fuision?
The Sun is fueled by fusion of hydrogen into helium.
Does combustion fuel the sun?
no combustion dose not fuel the sun but the sun is fueled by a nuclear reaction known as fusion.
Will the sun break up into small parts?
No. The sun is firmly held together by gravity.
What manages to keep the sun so hot all of the time?
The sun is fueled by the nuclear fusion taking place in its core. It releases massive amounts of energy, which is given out in heat and light.
What typeof music do fueled sing?

What are the 2 most abundant elements on the sun?
Hydrogen and helium. The nuclear fires are fueled by converting hydrogen into helium, through nuclear fusion. The core has other substances, but the sun is mostly gases.

Why did the Aztecs fell that they needed to give the sun god human sacrifices?
The Aztecs believed that the world was created and fueled by blood of the gods. The running of human blood, to the Aztecs, was the only way to obtain plentiful water and crops from the sun god each year.
