What is the difference between stars and the sun




















It turns out that our Sun is an average sized star. There are bigger stars, and there are smaller stars. We have found stars that are times bigger in diameter than our sun. Truly, those stars are enormous.

We have also seen stars that are just one tenth the size of our sun. Our Sun is a little unusual because it doesn't have any friends. It's just one Sun surrounded by planets, asteroids, comets, and dwarf planets.

But solar systems can have more than one sun. In fact, that's often the case. More than half of all stars are in multiple star systems. That means the solar system has two or more suns in it.
