Twinkle twinkle Little star..
What are you really made of..
What makes you twinkle..shine and dazzle..
What makes a twinkling star a shooting star?

These were the 'hot' topics of the day..
haha.. yet another cozy moment with my darling..
Soo romantic you know..hehe..On the 'rooftop'
watching stars and dark purple clouds rolling by..

oooo..Was suppose to post an article about stars here..aha..will talk about my 'romantic' dinner another time k..
here we go about stars now!!

=======================================================================================

STARS

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.
For most of its life,
a star shines
because thermonuclear 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 by fusion
processes
in
stars.
A star begins
as a collapsing
cloud of material
composed primarily of hydrogen,
along with helium
and
trace amounts of heavier elements.
Once the stellar
core is sufficiently dense,
some of the hydrogen is steadily
converted into helium
through the process of nuclear fusion.
The remainder of the star's interior
carries energy away
from the core
through a combination of
radiative and convective
processes.
The star's internal pressure
prevents it from collapsing
further under its own gravity.
Once the hydrogen fuel
at the core is exhausted,
those stars having
at least 0.4 times
the mass of the Sun
expand to become a red giant,
in some cases
fusing heavier elements
at the core
or in shells around the core.
The star then evolves into a degenerate form,
recycling a portion of the matter
into the interstellar environment,
where it will form
a new generation of stars
with a higher proportion
of heavy elements.
Stars are not spread uniformly across the universe,
but are normally grouped
into
galaxies along with interstellar
gas and dust.
A typical galaxy
contains hundreds of billions of stars,
and there are more than 100 billion
galaxies in the observable universe.
While it is often believed
that stars only exist
within galaxies,
intergalactic stars
have
been discovered. Astronomers estimate that
there are at least 70 sextillion
(7×10²²)
stars in the observable universe.

well well..feel like rambling more.. but I don't have toothpicks at hand to keep my eyes open.. So I shall leave before I start rambling about something..
