Eudamon Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 The sun does not change its size. Viewing the sun from Mercury should fill out the screen. Viewing it from Pluto should be the size of a pea. It is simple astronomy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhoenixTheMeh Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Agreed. For immersion, the sun should change size. On mercury it would not fill the sky though, it would be about 5x bigger at most. At the farthest reaches of our solar system, it would look like a star, only slightly brighter.

CedarDpg Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) it would look like a star I should hope so, since it is one. ;) Also, if we're talking realism, the Sun in the Liset is too yellow/has a low color temperature. The Sun's surface temperature is 5778K, which is mostly a harsh and boring white light more towards the blue side of the color temperature spectrum. The Sun is heavy in yellow light (which is why they call it a yellow star), but to us, it's not really that distinguishable. It's hard to find online, but if you see unfiltered/unprocessed photos of the Sun, they look mind-numbingly white. Actually found an unfiltered photo taken from an Earth-based observatory: http://www.bbso.njit.edu/Images/daily/images/wfullb.jpg Edited September 2, 2014 by CedarDpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
