Does the sun's light come from the center of the sun, or from all parts of it?

answers:
Ronald 7 say: No
It is emitted from the surface
But the Nuclear Reactions begin at its core
The Suns Surface is 6, 000 Degrees C
The Core Millions of Degrees
Good job it is not inside out
We would all fry !!
-
Sharon say: created inn the core, emitted from the photosphere
-
CarolOklaNola say: Light comes from ALL parts the Sun, but it STARTS in the core where the temperatures AND PRESSURES are high enough for nuclear fusion by 2 DIFFERENT methods to take place.
-
Jeffrey K say: The light is created in the core where nuclear fusion happens. It takes thousands of years for the photons to get to the surface. Then they go into space, some to earth. We see light as it leaves the photosphere near the surface.
-
Pearl say: probably frorn all parts of it
-
poldi2 say: The light we see comes from its surface. It is the result of energy produced in the core.
-
Robert B. say: The light starts in the center where the reaction is taking place. I once saw on a science program that it may take a photon of light 10,000 to 1 million years to escape from the sun as it keeps bouncing around inside of it.

megalomaniac say: Each individual fusion reaction creates both light and heat.
