The elements on the visible part of distant stars can be obtained from the star spectra, that is, by analyzing the light that comes from the stars.

How old do scientists believe the sun is?

Scientists believe that the sun is around 4.6 billion years old. This age is determined through the study of the formation of the solar system, the analysis of age-dating techniques for rocks and meteorites, and the use of computer models.

How did the sun come into your solar system?

The Sun and all the planets - our entire solar system - formed together, scientists believe, from a nebula - a spinning cloud of gas and dust - that condensed by gravity about 4.5 billion years ago.Some scientists also believe that some external shock wave, perhaps the explosion of a nearby supernova, may have caused the initial collapse of the dust cloud and started the formation. Because of the nature of the elements contained in the planets around the Sun, we know that the original nebula was at least partly made up of the remnants of other supernova explosions. Elements heavier than iron cannot be formed in fusion in normal stars; heavy elements like gold, lead and uranium can ONLY be created in the explosion of a supernova.
