The myth states they can not be in the sun.
This phrase typically refers to the Greek myth of Icarus, who flew too close to the sun with wings made of feathers and wax, causing him to fall into the sea and drown. The story is often used to caution against excessive ambition or hubris leading to downfall.
Gravity. The gravitational pull of the sun keeps the earth close to the sun.
The figure who famously had wax wings that melted when he flew too close to the sun is Icarus, a character from Greek mythology. He was the son of Daedalus, an inventor who created the wings for them to escape from Crete. Ignoring his father's warning to fly at a moderate height, Icarus flew too high, causing the sun to melt the wax holding his wings together, leading to his fall into the sea. This myth serves as a cautionary tale about hubris and the dangers of overreaching.
Icarus is not a God. He was a mortal, who along with his father, tried to escape from Crete with the use of Wax wings. Icarus flew to close to the sun, and his wings melted, I believe. He fell to his death.
In Greek mythology, Icarus is the flyer known for flying too close to the sun, resulting in his wax wings melting and him falling into the sea.

They are a myth.
Don't go too close to the sun or you will melt the wax holding your feathers together.
Icarus flew using the wax and feather wings his father made him. He died by flying to close close to the sun. The sun melted the wax off and Icarus fell to his death and drowned.
It's not the myth of JUST Daedalus, it's the myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Icarus was Daedalus' son, and after the master engineer designed the wings, which were held together with wax, he warned his son not to fly to low (as the spray from the water would weigh down the wings) and not to fly too high (as the heat from the sun would melt the wax and the wings would fall apart). Of course, the idiot boy ignored his father, and depending on which myth you find, he either flew too low and fell into the sea, or flew too high and.. fell into the sea.
