    2 stayed the same. The gravitational pull increased 125856 E-6 Newtons. This shows that when the mass increases, this directly affects the force of gravity and this applies to Newton’s Second Law, F=MA. Also, the Solar Nebula Theory lab showed how stars are made. Dust from nebula’s are pulled together from gravity and start fusing together,…

    Astronomers discovered a galaxy 9.8 billion light years away that creates an astounding 800 stars a year. To put this in perspective, the Milky Way produces two stars per year at most. “It is very exciting to have discovered such an interesting object,” said Gillian Wilson, a professor of physics and astronomy at the University of California, Riverside and a member of the research team. “Understanding its nature proved to be a real scientific challenge which required the combined efforts of an…

    In the endless reach of the universe, there was a star known as Arcturus. One day, she fainted and was taken to the hospital. The doctor diagnosed her with “Red Giant Star" syndrome, an outcome of her being with an iron child. The doctor advised her that due to her condition, if she chose to continue to fuse silicon into iron- to nurture her iron baby- she would get too hot and she could potentially collapse. Back in the day, Arcturus was able to combine hydrogen into helium particles in a…

    Stage Four: Protostar By this stage of the stars evolution, 100,000 years after the process began, it can now be plotted on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, which is used to compare the many different stars. Although it is still not fully formed, we are able to determine the type of star it will become based on its luminosity and temperature. In the nucleus of the condensed cloud, which could now fit within the orbit of Mercury at less than 58,000,000 km wide, electrons and protons are ripped…

    the cores of stars, nuclei combined to form atoms which constitute the basic unit of all chemical elements. The extensive expansion of the universe induced the birth and demise of more stars and consequently the creation of more elements. According to chemistry professor Carolyn Ruth, author of “Where Do Chemical Elements Come From?,” all fundamental elements are fabricated from the explosion of stars, commonly referred to as supernovas. Essentially, Ruth contends that a newborn star is…

    How do stars form? The stars were born among the dust and scattered throughout the most galaxies. There is an example of dust cloud which is the Orion Nebula.The turbulence in the depths of these clouds produces enough mass of knots.Because its own gravitational attraction,and the gas and dust can begin to collapse. Then the material at the center begin to heat up which is known as protostar . The heart of the collapsing cloud will one day become a star. Since stars are formed from…

This method has Kepler watch stars and see if there is any light coming from the star that is being blocked. If there is that light that got blocked might be from a planet, and to help determine if an object is a planet Kepler will have to watch the star for long periods of time to see if it does come back…
