The sun produces oxygen, and oxygen that burns no less. Who knew?

I am finally getting confused. In Part I, you said that the Sun generates its energy through “nuclear fuel,” whatever that means. Now you’re claiming that its energy comes from the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen.

Which is it? Nuclear fuel (I presume you mean nuclear fusion) or combustion of hydrogen and oxygen?
