Life of a Star
Storyboard Text
- NEBULA
- A nebula forms when a molecular cloud collapses.
-
-
-
-
- Woah! I wish I could stay a nebula forever!
- PROTOSTAR
- When nuclear fusion starts in the nebula, it creates a protostar.
-
- Wow! I know I'm not a nebula anymore, but being a protostar is amazing!... and tiring.
- Ouch!
- Oh! Sorry asteroid.
- I AM SO BIG!!! AND HOT!!!
- When a protostar reaches a certain core temperature, it goes into main sequence.
- MAIN SEQUENCE
- When they hydrogen starts to run out in the main sequence star, it becomes a red giant, or in this case a red supergiant.
- I may not be as hot as I used to be. But I'm as big as ever!
- RED SUPERGIANT
- When star runs out of fuel and stops nuclear fusion, a supernova is created.
- Am I a nebula again? Wait no I'm a supernova!!! Will I be a neutron star or a black hole?
- SUPERNOVA
- OMG! I was big enough to be a black hole! Yayyy!
-
- AHHHHHHHH!!!!
- The supernova will turn into a neutron star if the star is a giant, but if the star is a supergiant, it becomes a black hole.
- BLACK HOLE
