We just learned about the Harvest Moon.
We've already learned a lot of things about the Sun.
We know it's in the center of our solar system and the earth orbits around it.
We know it is a GV type of star called a Yellow Dwarf, and we know when the moon gets in front of the sun and we can't see the light that is called a solar eclipse.
The sun is an amazing thing floating out in space, and without it there would be no life on earth.
Even though our summers get really hot and the sun seems very bright, it is 93 million miles away.
That's like driving all the way around the earth almost 4,000 times!
