STARS 1
It is a large ball of plasma that emits energy produced by nuclear reactions in it's interior.
What is a star?
This object forms at the death of large stars during a cataclysmic explosion and is the densest object in the Universe.
What are Neutron stars?
The fastest thing in the Universe.
What is Light?
The birthplace of a Star.
What is a nebula?
Gravity pulling in and Energy flowing out of the Core are in balance.
What is Equilibrium?
This is the term used to describe when a star is in the prime of its life.
What is the Main Sequence?
Neutron stars are made of these.
What are neutrons?
The distance that light travels in one year.
What is a Light Year?
These Stars will live the longest, perhaps Trillions of years.
What are Red dwarfs?
The part of a Black Hole from which once you cross over, there is no return.
What is the Event Horizon?
This is the process of turning hydrogen atoms into helium atoms.
What is nuclear fusion?
A neutron is actually a combination of these two particles.
What are protons and electrons?
The birthplace of a Star.
What is a Nebula?
These Stars have the shortest lifespans, maybe only a few million years.
What are Blue Giants?
The bottom or end of a black Hole where No one knows what really happens.
What is the Singularity?
This is the designation used for the largest stars.
What are Supergiants?
These objects form after the death of the truly largest stars in the universe and are so "heavy", massive and dense that not even space itself can hold them in place.
What are Black Holes?
The hottest Stars are this color.
What is Blue?
A Star is 5 Billion light years away from Earth as you look at it through a telescope. How long did it take the light from the Star to reach your eyes?
What is 5 billion years?
A theoretical possibilty created when the ends of two Black Holes meet.
What are Wormholes?
Name at least three of our Suns transformations from birth to death in correct order.
What is Protostar, Main Sequence Star, Red Giant, White Dwarf, Black Dwarf?
The explosion that occurs during the death of very large stars.
What is a Supernova?
This would happen to a clock if it could travel near light speed.
What is it would move (tick) slower and Time would slow down.
What are you looking back through when you observe a star that is 5 billion light years away?
What is Time?
This would happen if you replaced the Sun with a Black Hole of equal mass.
What is the Earth would continue to orbit the Black Hole in its same location. It would however quickly freeze into a planet wide ball of ice.
