Science of Stars

     Stars are massive balls oh hydrogen and helium that produce nuclear fusion to create heat and light. Although many people believe that stars are on fire, they actually create their heat from extreme pressure and, as mentioned, nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the is when two molecules squeeze together until they fuse into one. The reason it puts off so much energy is that not all the electrons are used producing a small amount of energy, but because it is done so much, so quickly, the energy output is massive. Our sun is on the medium to the smaller side of stars. The largest star we've discovered (UY Scuti) is so big that the gravity can not hold it together. It's blowing it's self apart. The brightest star in the sky (Sirius a) is 25 times brighter and nearly 10,000 thousand degrees hotter than our sun on the surface.

    so let me get this straight. If gravity its self is losing a battle agents the sun. than we can only expect at some point the explosion prosses of the sun will surpass the gravity bonderys and freaking destroy out solar system. nice.

    It's crazy to think that gravity itself cannot even hold (UY Scuti) together. My guess is that it will become either a black hole or neutron star very shortly or already has since light takes years to travel and were seeing stuff from the past.

    This sounds kind of crazy but what if we could steal parts of other suns to fuel are own. That would essentially make the sun immortal.

Law enforcement intercepted a ricen laced package and letter sent to Donald Trump that supposedly came from St. Hubert Quebec. A women has been arrested in the case but they are still investigating.  Ricin is a highly toxic compound extracted from castor beans that has been used in terror plots.

Current event

I am just doing a trial current event-  Are you supposed to put the link to your article in the summary?  Do you know how to do that?  My current event is an article from the magazine The Week.  It is titled   It's not just the germs — it's also the genes  The article discusses how a person's genes play a part in how viruses react within that body.  It talks about how some people may get a virus more seriously than another & how scientists can look at that information and develop therapies from.  Just so you know The Week pulls articles from other sources-  I did backtrack to check the source they got the original article from & it checks out.

Over 87,000 papers published on coronavirus since start of pandemic

 Over 87,000 papers have been published about this global pandemic. When most people think of the pandemic going around right now, they think about how awful it all is. How many people have died, how many people have lost a family member, or how many people they have lost relationships with friends or family. But, do people ever think about how this event will go down in history, and how it will affect science studies in the future? We never know what type of science we will come across in the future, but we can say that science evolves every day, and things are constantly changing. This is why so many people are interested in this pandemic. The more we know about this pandemic, the more we can do to try and change is. So, what will science bring in the future? And how will it impact future in sciences? We won't know the answer to either of those questions for a long time, but we can certainly say that it will evolve so much, and make things a lot more interesting.    htt...
