It's your fault if you don't have a surface.

Well if you want to be technical, nothing has a surface in the sense you speak of.
In the sense I speak of, the earth has a solid surface, while the sun is entirely gaseous. I rest my kettle.

Thanks for the correction. As a consequence I looked "plasma" up and had my memory refreshed on stuff I had forgotten somewhere between science lessons at school and now. But does that mean the sun has a surface on which a kettle (assuming it can withstand the heat) can be rested upon after all?
