I've heard that the sun's rays destroy bacteria, so would it mean that the sun would be bacteria free or could a form of Bacteria adapt to the extreme climate? Also can other plantes in the solar system have bacteria, meaning there is a "form" of life? Or am I asking a blank question. One last thing, I dont want to sound dumb but is it normal to have bacteria on other surfaces than earth?

Just a curious person.

No form of life as we know it could exist on the sun. Radiation aside, the fact that it is made of plasma prevents chemical reaction necessary for life (as we know it). I guaranty that if you are sick, one trip to the sun would kill every germ in your body. We don't know if other planets have bacteria, thus we have never found extraterrestrial life (life not from Earth).
