  • What is the Sun Made Of? Composition & Elements
    No, the sun is not made of gold.

    Here's what the sun is actually made of:

    * Hydrogen (H): About 70.6% of the sun's mass is hydrogen.

    * Helium (He): About 27.4% of the sun's mass is helium.

    * Other elements: The remaining small percentage is made up of trace amounts of other elements like oxygen, carbon, neon, and iron.

    Gold is a very heavy element and is not found in significant quantities in the sun. It's formed in much rarer events like supernova explosions.
