The New Astronomy

by S. P. Langley


The sun, as we shall learn later, is a star, and not a particularly large star. It is, as has been said, “only a private in the host of heaven,” but it is one of that host; it is one of those glittering points to which we have been brought near. Let us keep in mind, then, from the first, what we shall see confirmed later, that there is an essentially similar constitution in them all, and not forget that when we study the sun, as we now begin to do, we are studying the stars also.
