The temperature at the center of the sun is about 15million kelvin. The plasma temperature of a fusion reactor is around ten times higher. Also, a rector uses deuterium–tritium (D–T) fusion, and the sun uses hydrogen fusion. D-T requires less confinement and is more energetically favorable. If DT is like setting off a fire cracker then hydrogen fusion is like igniting a damp log.
