Detailed Solution

Stars appear smaller than the Sun because all other stars are millions of times farther away from the Sun.
The Sun is the nearest star to our planet. Because the Sun is closer to Earth, it appears larger and brighter than any other star. Its brightness allows us to see it even though it is far away. We can see the Sun when we are on the side of the Earth that faces it.
