You’re welcome. It is amazing how tiny the earth is in comparison to the sun. They say you can put 1.3 million earths inside the sun.

Radius, diameter & circumference
The sun is nearly a perfect sphere. Its equatorial diameter and its polar diameter differ by only 6.2 miles. The mean radius of the sun is 432,450 miles, which makes its diameter about 864,938 miles. You could line up 109 Earths across the face of the sun. The sun’s circumference is about 2,713,406 miles.
Mass and volume
The total volume of the sun is 1.4 x 1027 cubic meters. About 1.3 million Earths could fit inside the sun. The mass of the sun is about 333,000 times the mass of the Earth. The sun contains 99.8 percent of the mass of the entire solar system, leading astronomers Imke de Pater and Jack J. Lissauer, authors of the textbook “Planetary Sciences,” to refer to the solar system as “the sun plus some debris.”

The Sun plus some debris, indeed. ;-)
