The Sun glows because it is a very big ball of gas, and a process called nuclear fusion is taking place in its core. Nuclear fusion occurs when one proton smashes into another proton so hard that they stick together and release some energy as well. This energy then heats up the other materials (other protons and electrons and such) nearby. This heating eventually grows out from the center (or core) of the star to the outside, finally leaving the surface and radiating out into space to be the heat and light we know stars emit.That's a good explanation of the process. The point I was making is that a lot of what we see is illusions because our brains are constantly lying to us. Even when we know what we are seeing is a lie it's almost impossible to not believe it.
