Do a google on “critical mass”.....the earth nor any other planet in our solar system do not have it.

Nope, not even Jupiter despite Arthur C Clark.

The Sun is 1.3 MILLION times larger by volume than the Earth.

That’s why its a star.

Isn’t that for a fusion reaction?

I think what they’re referring to here, is natural uranium undergoing fission and releasing heat.
