Sol, the name of the beautiful star that we are traveling\u00a0around. We see it every day, day after day. I don’t know about you, but I often forget how important our sun is to our survival. If we were a tiny bit closer we would all fry to a crisp, and a bit further away and we’d all be sweating ice cubes. So the next time you feel the sun on your skin, take a moment to be thankful for what it does for us.<\/p>\n

Here are some examples: It provides us with heat, just the right amount. It gives us light so we can see the rest of our beautiful planet, and moon and each other. It provides our planet with the energy it needs to drive our weather systems, not to mention the energy for our solar panels, so we can have clean renewable electricity. And I could go on for a long time.<\/p>\n

Post some comments on things that Sol does for you. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
