| The electric charge of the Earth is 588,000 C. The magnitude of the charge is found according to the Gauss theorem, based on the strength of the electric field at the surface of the Earth 130V / M. The electric charge of the Sun, which consists mainly of electrically neutral plasma, is very small (0.08 C). This value is found from theoretical considerations and not confirmed by measurements.
