If the Sun were just an ordinary "light bulb" illuminating the Earth and the rest of our solar system with visible light, and you were to simply switch it "off" at this very moment in time, anyone here want to guess how much light the whole starry night sky would then produce? (That's an accumulation of light from every star, every galaxy, every globular cluster, the whole Milky Way's glow, and every source of incandescent glowing gas in every nubulae... everything in the entire universe!)?
