Thread: The Sun

I'd guess it has to do with the size of the sun.

Unless the sun has divets in it that are hundreds (maybe thousands) of miles long, it's going to appear perfect to us - as far as we are away from it.

Planets are really round too, but they're not as easy to see as the sun is.

Not to mention that looking at the sun (which as I understand is very bright) going to give you an overexposed image. It's like it has its own natural Photoshop filter to smooth out all the edges.
