  2. Dec 13, 2023 · The hottest part of the Sun is the core: 15 million K; ~15 million °C; 27 million °F. The coolest part of the Sun is the visible surface or photosphere: 4,000 – 6,500 K; ~5,500 °C; ~10,000 °F. Surprisingly, the solar atmosphere or corona is hotter than the Sun’s surface.

  3. Jan 15, 2014 · Arranged in layers, the sun varies in temperature: It is hottest at its center, and cooler in its outer layers — until it strangely reheats at the fringes of the sun's atmosphere.

  4. The temperature in the Sun's core is about 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million degrees Celsius) – hot enough to sustain nuclear fusion. This creates outward pressure that supports the star's gigantic mass, keeping it from collapsing. From our vantage point on Earth, the Sun may appear like an unchanging source of light and heat in the sky.

  5. Jul 17, 2021 · The Sun is nearly a perfect sphere of hot plasma. The average surface temperatures are at around 5.778 K, but they vary since it is composed out of three layers. Our Sun is an enormous energy and light-producing sphere of glowing gases. Though it is the hottest object in the solar system, other stars are far hotter, even tens of times so.

  6. 6 days ago · The Sun is classified as a G2 V star, with G2 standing for the second hottest stars of the yellow G class—of surface temperature about 5,800 kelvins (K)—and the V representing a main sequence, or dwarf, star, the typical star for this temperature class.

  7. How hot is the Sun? The temperature at the surface of the Sun is about 10,000 Fahrenheit (5,600 Celsius). The temperature rises from the surface of the Sun inward towards the very hot center of the Sun where it reaches about 27,000,000 Fahrenheit (15,000,000 Celsius).

  8. Apr 11, 2023 · How hot is the sun? The sun has varying temperatures, depending on the layer. The core is the hottest part, reaching 27 million degrees Fahrenheit, according to NASA. Another blistering...
