Written September 16, 2026 For The Contest, Pick-A-Title, Vol. 59 Theme: “A Most Distant Sun” ~ Sponsor: Edward Ibeh
Knowing our Sun was once a star permits my thoughts to wander far. Raising my eyes at night to see the twinkling stars look back at me. The closest ones fill out my view, and far beyond Earth's avenue, deep endless space holds many more beyond which we cannot explore Are we alone- most want to know! Probability assumes no! A star can turn into a Sun- attracting planets to be spun. A distant Sun could be like ours progressing from the realm of stars, develop its own atmosphere; that part for life becomes so clear. Providing all the minerals and moisture in the air that spills in making clouds that form the rain which living things must have, retain. The law of probability says yes! Impossibility - Earth can not be the only one! Surely, there is a distant Sun.
