I like that the sun serves us many of our god tropes.
It hurts to look directly at Helios.
Helios beams us life-giving energy consistently, day to day, year-to-year epoch-to-epoch.
A very long time ago Helios burped (CME) and toasted all the surface life. No one knows what made Helios so upset or if They’ll do it again. (small CMEs are common and give us Aura Borealis. One during the telegraph age might cook our satellite arrays if it recurs.)
In contrast to Helios, the rest of the solar system is about th3 size of a blood draw. The earth is a smear on a microscope slide.
Spend too long in the presence of Helios and we get burned. We cant survive more than seconds in the unprotected presence of Helios.
