6. The sun is an averaged sized star, and it is a redish-orange color. The sun's gravity is what keeps all 8 planets (and PLuto) orbiting around it. The sun is massive next to Earth but compared to other stars, it is medium sized. Kyle wrote that the sun was a big star, and it is actually a medium star. He also wrote the sun is color blue, but it is actually a red orange color.
