Stay the Hell off the Sun

Some people insist that there is nothing new under the sun. How do they know? Have they ever been on the sun. I don't think so. Nobody's been on the sun to get under it. Ya gotta get on it before you can get under it. Matter of fact, it's impossible to be on the sun in the first place because the sun has no surface. Sorry Smash Mouth…no walking on the sun. You're vaporized a million miles away.Johnny Cash came closest when he fell "into" not "onto" a burning ring of fire. Katrina and the Waves? Don't try walking on sunshine, particularly if you're stepping off the top floor of a Miami high rise which some folks might regard as suicide which according to Catholicism wins you a free trip to Hell which is a lot like the temperature on the sun.

The sun is a massive ball of plasma. The "surface" of the sun is a dense opaque region called the photosphere which transitions into the solar atmosphere known as the corona. Under the sun refers to the Sun's interior where nuclear fusion occurs. The fusion starts at the core and extends through the radiative and convective zones. The concept of a solid surface doesn't apply to the Sun so it is impossible to get under it.

You know who else has no surface? Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. If you want superficial, it's us, Mars and Venus. We got surface with mountains,plains and polar ice caps. Mars in fact has the largest volcano in the solar system. Yeah but there's nothing new about any of that other than they've been around for millions and billions of years but we only found out about them a comparative few hours ago and thought "now what have we here". Like paranoia, erectile dysfunction, Oedipus Complex, anxiety, depression, tequilla and Texas tea, we all thought they were new just like we thought dinosaurs were new when we discovered the bones and couldn't blame dem bones dem bones dem dry bones on nuthin else. If we haven't discovered it, labeled it, analyzed it then it doesn't exist until we name it when it becomes new for ten minutes before we realize that it too, whatever it is has been around longer than we been around. Let's face it if the mountains were more sentient they'd probably be looking at us and saying "that's new" or "what have we here" and God knows we got here five minutes after he did or she or whatever when it he, she they were new indeed and kicked the first can down the first road.
