- The sun emits light across all the visible colors in the electromagnetic spectrum fairly evenly. When these come together united in sunlight the sun appears white. This is useful because if this balance was thrown off colors less favored would be difficult to see.

The Sun emits light over a whole range of wavelengths (or colours). In fact, it does so in all parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, apart from gamma rays. The peak in the Sun’s spectrum can be used to derive its surface temperature, about 5,780 Kelvin (roughly 5,500°C).
May 24, 2023 · Some say that the Sun is a green-yellow color, but our human eyes see it as white, or yellow-to-red during sunset. What color is it really?

Feb 3, 2024 · The four layers of the Sun are the core, radiative zone, convective zone, and atmosphere. The Sun is a colossal nuclear reactor at the heart of our solar system. Our favorite star is about 109 times the diameter of Earth and over 330,000 times its mass.
Oct 6, 2020 · So, the answer is that the sun is the color white. Although it may appear and orangey-red to our human eyes, it is white and emits white light. The reason we see it as orange is because the blue and violet rays are scattered by our atmosphere due to them having a shorter wavelength. But the sun’s color is always white, since it emits all ...
If we were above the atmosphere, say on the International Space Station and looked at the sun (through our filtered visor), the sun would appear white! Why? Because though the sun emits strongest in the green part of the spectrum, it also emits strongly in all the visible colors – red through blue (400nm to 600nm).
