(The Sun Is A Mass Of Incandescent Gas Live Version) - They Might Be Giants [00:08.56]The sun is a mass of incandescent gas [00:12.52]A gigantic nuclear furnace [00:15.46] [00:16.51]Where hydrogen is built into helium [00:20.39]At a temperature of millions of degrees [00:24.33] [00:24.91]Yo ho it's hot the sun is not [00:28.89]A place where we could live [00:32.47] [00:33.05]But here on earth there'd be no life [00:37.34]Without the light it gives [00:41.20] [00:42.20]We need it's light [00:44.37]We need it's heat [00:46.37]We need it's energy [00:49.94] [00:50.51]Without the sun without a doubt [00:54.13] [00:54.72]There'd be no you and me [00:58.69] [01:00.04]The sun is a mass of incandescent gas [01:04.54]A gigantic nuclear furnace [01:07.63] [01:08.42]Where hydrogen is built into helium [01:12.38]At a temperature of millions of degrees [01:16.57] [01:17.65]The sun is hot [01:19.55] [01:21.31]It is so hot that everything on it is a gas [01:23.90]Iron copper aluminum and many others [01:27.87]The sun is large [01:31.35] [01:32.04]If the sun were hollow a million earths could fit inside and yet [01:36.18]The sun is only a middle sized star [01:38.90] [01:39.57]The sun is far away [01:44.06] [01:44.77]About 93 million miles away and that's why it looks so small [01:49.16] [01:49.75]And even when it's out of sight [01:54.71]The sun shines night and day [01:58.69] [01:59.96]The sun gives heat [02:01.93]The sun gives light [02:03.90]The sunlight that we see [02:07.89]The sunlight comes from our own sun's [02:12.17]Atomic energy [02:15.76] [02:17.80]Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom smashing machine [02:21.33] [02:22.01]The heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions of hydrogen [02:26.46] [02:27.19]Carbon nitrogen and helium [02:29.74] [02:30.28]The sun is a mass of incandescent gas [02:34.79]A gigantic nuclear furnace [02:37.92] [02:38.69]Where hydrogen is built into helium [02:42.49]At a temperature of millions of degrees
