The Sun produces 386 trillion gigawatts of energy through nuclear fusion, which is slowly declining. This energy is responsible for life on Earth and may replace fossil fuels in the future. Sunspot activity causes variations in energy output, and the Sun’s energy has increased by 40% since the solar system’s formation. Our Sun pumps about […]
