Here's why:
* Sun: Our Sun is a star, but it's *our* star, the one that our solar system revolves around.
* Other Stars: All the other stars we see in the night sky are also suns. They are giant balls of hot gas that produce their own light and heat through nuclear fusion.
* What We See: When we look at a star, we're actually seeing the light that's traveled for years, sometimes even millions of years, to reach us.
So, while every star is a sun, not every sun is our sun.
