The Red Giant Stage!

Back to Board

The stars appear to

move because the Earth is

Back to Board

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

A mid-sized star!

Back to Board

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

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!
