Why the Sun is Important to the Sun?

I decided to go to answers.com, and answer a random question. I came upon a very strange question, that didn't really seem like a real question. It was this: Explain why the sun in important to the sun.


So, I decided I would take the time and answer this question, pretending to be serious about the matter, but in all reality, not caring at all. I hope you enjoy the answer I gave them.


The sun is important to the sun in many ways. 

First of all, the sun gives off warmth. Some of this warmth will go towards earth, causing the earth to heat up. The heat waves that do not go through the earth's atmosphere will bounce back and hit the sun. This helps give the sun warmth to itself, so it can continue to create more and more heat for the earth.

Secondly, if the sun did not exist, then how could the sun see anything? The sun obviously needs light in order to see the earth, so it knows where to aim its heat waves at. If the sun could not see the earth, it would most likely spew its heat waves all across the galaxy, hitting other solar systems, causing them to burn to a crisp.

Lastly, the sun needs a companion. Someone to give it encouragement when times are tough. Occasionally, the sun gets sick of creating heat, and simply wants to give up on what it was created for; heat, and warmth, and the major light source during the day, and reflecting its light off the moon's surface to give us our major light source during the night. In these terrible times or hardship, the sun is in dire need for someone or something to encourage it. Luckily, the sun has the sun to help it get through these tough times. We are very fortunate that the sun has something that gives it encouragement. It is possible that the sun may stop working, if it doesn't have something to encourage it every now and again.
