Do stars combust?
Stars are not powered by combustion; they are powered by nuclear fusion, which is a fundamentally different and far more energetic process.
What makes the moon and stars so bright?
The suns light reflects it. ANSWER; The sun rays hits the moon and reflects light of consequence
What is the process by which stars burn brightly?
Stars get their energy from nuclear fusion - mainly, hydrogen to helium.Stars get their energy from nuclear fusion - mainly, hydrogen to helium.Stars get their energy from nuclear fusion - mainly, hydrogen to helium.Stars get their energy from nuclear fusion - mainly, hydrogen to helium.
Without oxygen and an atmosphere how do stars burn?
The "burning" inside a star is not fire as we are familiar with it, which is called combustion. Stars are powered by nuclear fusion. Combustion is a chemical process by which oxygen combines with other substances to make new molecules. In nuclear fusion, hydrogen atoms fuse with each other to form helium. This process produces millions of times more energy than combustion does.
A star generates energy by?
Nuclear fusion. Most stars (the so-called "main sequence" stars) convert hydrogen-1 into helium-4.Nuclear fusion.

What are powers stars?
Stars are powered by nuclear fusion
Is it true orFALSE that stars are powered by nuclear fusion reactions?
false
Why are you a nuclear powered human being?
"Why are you a nuclear powered human being?"
Why is nuclear energy is said to be the fuel of the universe?
The stars are powered by nuclear fusion, so this is widespread. Nuclear fission is more unusual and probably only occurs in certain planets where there is a lot of uranium.
Can a planet go supernova?
No, only large stars go supernova when nuclear fusion breaks down. While white dwarfs can go supernova in some instances, brown dwarfs are failed stars which are not powered by nuclear fusion.
What was the first nuclear powered vessel?
The first nuclear powered submarine was the USS Nautilus.
Is the sun nuclear powered?
Yes, nuclear fusion
What is the cost per gallon for gas for a nuclear powered car?
if the car is nuclear powered you wont need gas
Who invented the nuclear powered Jet Airplane and the nuclear powered Rocket and was paid 1 dollar for their patents?
Richard Feynman
How can a star be a flaming ball of flame if there is no oxygen in space?
The "burning" that takes place in a star is not the burning we are familiar with, which is called combustion. Stars instead powered by nuclear fusion, in which hydrogen atoms fuse with one another to form helium. Nuclear fusion is millions of times more efficient than combustion.
