ONE-SHOT STORY: SCIENCE-MATH SERIES



Episode 1. One Sun

“Haaaaah! Grandpa, today is so hot! I cannot handle it. I need a fan.”

Johnny didn’t stop complaining about the weather. Now, he had to turn on the fan. Grandpa shook his head while watching Johnny shouting.

“I have some questions, Grandpa. If we who live on Earth feel so hot, what about the Sun itself?”

Grandpa took a breath for a while. “Then, can someone live there?” Johnny still wondered. He seemed so curious.

“In our solar system, we only have ONE Sun. The Sun scatters light throughout the solar system, including our Earth. And yes, absolutely, the Sun is hotter than the Earth. Precisely, the Sun is the hottest thing in our solar system. Kid, do you want to know how hot the Sun is?” Grandpa gave a question to Johnny.

Johnny’s eyes looked so enthusiastic. “Yes! Of course, Grandpa! How hot it is?”

Grandpa answered, “The Sun’s average surface temperature is 5.700°C. Meanwhile, the average surface temperature of the Earth is 20°C.”

“Whoop! How hot it is!”

Grandpa nodded, “Exactly, kid. And that fact can answer your next question as well. There is not any living thing on it.”

“Hmm, so interesting. I want to know more!”

Jurusan saya, pendidikan matematika, ada di baris
