- the core of the sun
- here lies a photon, where nuclear fusion happens, and the suns core
- Radiative Zone
- here's a photon and the rediative zone
- Convection Zone
- here's a photon and the convection zone
- A photon is created through nuclear fusion and takes about 200,000 years to exit the core of the Sun
- Corona
- corona zone
- this zone is so tightly packed with protons that our photon moves so slowly that it can take up to a few million years to make it out of this stage
- Traveling to Earth
- this zone is very hot, but a lot less dense than the Radiative Zone, so our photons has an easier time going through this phase.
- Traveling to Earth
- this is the surface of the sun and it's density is ten thousand times less than the density of air, so the photon can just slip through. And finally after millions of years our photon finally breaks free from the Sun’s interior.
- It takes about 8 minutes for a photon to travel through the solar system to reach Earth
- our photon is here moving extremely quickly towards the earth
- some photons do not enter the atmosphere because of the type of light, gamma rays, x-rays, or and even ultraviolet rays are absorbed or reflected by the atmosphere. Some photons are scattered because they're visible-light photon with a blue or violet wavelength.
