The Energy From the Sun | Ready Jet Go!
Not even Jet and his friends can escape the summer heat. In this clip from Ready Jet Go!, an exhausted Mindy asks Jet why the sun is so hot. Jet explains that the sun is actually a bright star, and that it is responsible for all life on Earth. Because the Earth is not too hot and not too cold, scientists sometimes call it a "Goldilocks planet".
