What are Stars?

Question

Answer 1

Stars are massive balls of plasma gas which releases massive amounts of energy in numerous forms. They shine because the contents of its core are undergoing nuclear fusion, and the energy released by this process travels into space. In fact, almost all of the elements we are familiar with today were created as a result of the fusion of hydrogen and helium.

Answer 2

A star is a massive, luminous ball of plasma. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun, which is the source of most of the energy on Earth. Other stars are visible in the night sky, when they are not outshone by the Sun. A star shines because nuclear fusion in its core releases energy that traverses the star's interior and then radiates into outer space. Almost all elements heavier than hydrogen and helium were created inside the cores of stars.

Answer 3

Well something i've written myself not taken off a website, ha.

Basically a star is a big ball of gas that converts H into He. Which then starts the process of creating elements upto Fe. A Supernovae then creates the heavier elements.

Answer 4

stars means Set The Area in Real Service

Answer 5

Stars are big nuclear reactors that convert Hydrogen to Helion and then Helion to Carbon and so on to produce all the elements we know. The nuclear reactions take place at the star's center because of the pressure there.

Answer 6

As visible stars, they are in essence gigantic nuclear reactors that fuses hydrogen into helium, and helium into heavier elements. And of course in the process gives off tremendous amounts of energy.

For star systems with only one star, they are the centre of the star system. As well they have the majority of mass in the star system.

Answer 7

Stars are energy sources of radiation and light keeping revolve planetary as well as their sub-satellite systems around them as a center of gravitational balance and as a named star family such as our solar ('sun' named star) system. Given hospitable conditions for support of preliminary or complex and sophisticated life forms on some of rotating planets, stars lend support of sustenance of life by their continuous radiated energies primarily harvesting vegetative forms and all other dependent ones secondarily.

Answer 8

Stars are balls of gas,composed mainly of hydrogen and helium and held together by gravity,in which nuclear fusion creates energy.

Answer 9

stars are giant gas balls like the sun just smaller that we are seeing now that actualy appeared over a million years ago

Answer 10

Stars are made up of hepz of gases (plazma) the closes star to the earth is the sun. :}
