About this listen
The podcast describes the formation of the Sun, from its origin as a cloud of dust and gas in the Milky Way to its evolution as a stable star. It explains how gravity caused the cloud to collapse, generating a rotating disk that became a protostar. Nuclear fusion, which began when the core temperature reached 15 million degrees Celsius, marked the birth of the Sun. The protoplanetary disk around the star gave rise to the planets of the solar system, while the solar wind cleared away the remaining gas and dust. The energy released by nuclear fusion is responsible for the light and heat that allow life on Earth.
