10. Superman And The Power Of The Sun
- Company: DC Comics
- Real Science: Biology
- Possible to Recreate: Yes & No
Superman is from Krypton, an alien planet that sadly blew up. Kal-El was sent to Earth before this occurred and eventually grew up on Earth. He began to develop powers no other Earth child had. Essentially, this was all caused by Earth’s sun as it is more powerful than the weaker Kryptonian sun. It is technically possible for this to occur as we do not know how an alien species will adapt to the changes on another planet.
In fact, our planet’s conditions may kill certain aliens. However, mankind needs the sun to live and it gives all living creatures a lot of we use daily. Since Superman’s body was built for a Kryptonian sun, much weaker than our own, he was already genetically able to take in more from that sun. Now that he’s on a planet with a more powerful sun, he could theoretically soak up more from our sun due to this.
