Science For Everyone: Why It Is Important to Study The Sun

Studying the Sun, which is the largest object in the solar system, and
the nearest star to Earth, can help scientists understand more about other
stars in the Milky Way galaxy, and about stellar objects in other galaxies. A
multitude of eruptive phenomena occur in the Sun. While the Sun is the
source of energy for all life forms, the release of excessive energy towards Earth
results in disturbances in the near-Earth space environment. For instance,
these disturbances disrupt communication systems and damage spacecraft.
Also, astronauts are sometimes in danger of being exposed to explosive solar
phenomena. Therefore, understanding solar dynamics will allow scientists to
devise systems that will ensure early warning of eruptive events.

Inside the 4.5-billion-year-old star, nuclear fusion reactions occur.

Aditya-L1's findings may help scientists understand these reactions better,
and how they power the Sun. The temperature of the central region of the Sun,
or the core, is about 15 million degrees Celsius, and that of the photosphere
is about 5,500 degrees Celsius. Aditya-L1 will also study the reasons behind
this difference in temperature. Thermal and magnetic phenomena keep
occurring inside the Sun, and hence, the star serves as the perfect natural
laboratory to understand certain occurrences that cannot be explained in the
laboratory.

Lesson No.: 7 Date:
Lesson Title/ Topic: The Sun’s Layers and Characteristics
Name: Grade & Section:

I. Activity No.2: JigSun Puzzle and Solar Navigation (60 minutes)

II. Objective(s): At the end of the activity, the learner is expected to:
a. Identify the inner and outer layers of the Sun.
b. Describe each part of the two layers of the Sun.

III. Materials Needed: laptop marker

Cut pieces of the jigsaw puzzle cartolina or manila paper

IV. Instructions:
A. JigSun Puzzle
1. Work in a group assigned to you.
2. Arrange the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle given to your group to form a picture.
3. With the use of printed and online resources, your group will identify whether it’s the inner
or the outer structure of the Sun was formed.

B. Solar Navigation
1. Watch the video assigned to your group to describe the layers of the Sun assigned to
your group.
