Read allThe sun derives it's energy form the fusion of hydrogen into helium but, as Arvin explains, it doesn't occur in just one step. Fusion is only successful because the helium nucleus is more stable than the a single proton, the hydrogen nucleus. To understand why Arvin looks deep into the helium nucleus to see how the quarks that make up the protons and neutrons behave.
