great question. stars are always in the sky, you just cant see them in the day because the sun is so bright it drowns out the light from the faint stars. stars are made from nebulas (giant clouds of gas and dust in space) they are mostly composed of hydrogen (the most basic element) they also have some helium, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and a few other elements, but the are mostly hydrogen...hope this helps!!!!!

The Stars are always there. Normally we can't see them during the day because the sun is bright that "lights up" all the particles in the atmosphere (Think of the way you can see dust flying around in a dark room where only a beam of light enters).

Stars, the sun included, are made of mostly hydrogen and they shine because they are huge Nuclear ovens that transform the Hydrogen in helium by Nuclear Fusion (which is about the opposite thing Nukes do, they split heavy atoms into light ones whereas stars combine light elements into heavier ones).

according to many scientists, all stars in the universe originally originated from an event called the big bang. in it, bodies of plasma distributed out and formed into the stars we know today. Stars are always present, but they are only visible in the dark because of all the interference of light which occurs when the part of earth you live in is facing the sun. Repeating what I said before, stars are made of a form of matter (like liquids and solids) called plasma. The only form of plasma that can be found on earth is lightning.

The stars are alwasy there, but the backscattered light from the Sun is so bright that they can't be seen so long as we're facing the Sun.

Stars, just like our Sun, are large balls of hydrogen fuel that are being consumed by a process called 'nuclear fusion'. This process releases huge amounts of energy in the form of light and heat.

They never go away. It's just too hard to see them in the day time because the sun is so bright and the sky is lit up. They are made of a big bubble of burning hydrogen - just like our sun. The sun is a star, too.

The stars are there all the time. You just can't see them during the day because the sun is too bright. And that is what stars are they are suns. All of them billions of miles away which is why they appear so small.

A star is a massive, luminous ball of plasma. Stars come together to form galaxies, and they dominate the visible universe. The star is the closest star to earth.

The same places as when it is light, when, barring clouds, you can still see our own star - The Sun. It's just that you can't see them (other than ours) when it's light. Some 'come from' Outer Space and some 'come from' within our own galaxy ("Milky Way").

They are made (like ours) from helium and hydrogen, mostly.

They are mostly Hydrogen & Helium in the form of plasma and/or gas, with traces of many other elements. They are always present, but the intense light from the sun floods our vision, so we can't see them in broad daylight. You can see some of them, however, during the day, if you are down the bottom of a deep well.
