39. The stars appear to move because the Earth is moving! Back to Board
40. Nuclear Fusion occurs when heat and pressure build in the nebula causing 4 hydrogen nuclei to fuse together to create 1 helium. This process creates heat and light energy. A STAR IS BORN! Back to Board
42. True! A massive star burns blue for 1-20 million years then turns into a super giant, then explodes into a supernova. Back to Board
43. Apparent magnitude! That is how bright the star appears to us from Earth. Remember…absolute magnitude is how bright the star really is! Back to Board
59. Orion was a handsome hunter who fell in love with the Goddess Artemis. Artemis accidentally killed him and placed him in the night sky! Back to Board
61. A star is born in a nebula which is a cloud of dust and gas held together by gravity. As heat and pressure increase, nuclear fusion occurs fusing 4 hydrogen nuclei together to form 1 helium. Heat and light energy are released and A STAR IS BORN! A mid-sized star like our sun will burn yellow for about 10 billion years. After 10 billion years it will become a Red Giant . In the Red Giant stage, nuclear fusion slows because it’s hydrogen is used up. The temperature drops and it loses it’s outer gas layers. Left behind is a hot, dense core called a white dwarf . When the white dwarf burns out, a black dwarf remains which has no fuel left and is a DEAD STAR! Back to Board
