**The Sun’s Eternal Light** honors the star at the heart of our solar system—the source of energy, warmth, and life for all the planets. Without the Sun, there would be no Mercury’s swift orbits, no Venus’ golden glow, no Earth’s vibrant ecosystems, and no distant Pluto lurking in the cold. It is the **unifying force** that binds the solar system together, casting its light across space and time.
In mythology, the Sun was revered as a deity of power and renewal—**Ra** in ancient Egypt, **Helios** in Greek lore, and **Sol** in Roman tradition. Its light symbolizes **knowledge, guidance, and the enduring connection** between all celestial bodies, just as light connects us to the cosmos in our everyday lives.
The Sun’s influence extends far beyond its surface, shaping the destiny of planets, comets, and even the boundaries of our solar system. It reminds us that even in the vastness of space, we are all part of a **single, illuminated system**, tied together by the same cosmic force.
**Fun Fact:**
The Sun makes up **99.86% of the solar system’s mass**, yet it is just one of over **100 billion stars** in the Milky Way—a humbling reminder of both its power and our place in the universe.
