Are stars planets from different galaxies?

Through intense research it has indicated that stars are not only luminous balls of plasma held by gravity, but are also planets from different galaxies. From a distance, they may seem like stars, but are in fact planets. So yes, you are correct, planets are stars from different galaxies.


How does the distance of planets from Earth compare to the distance to the stars?

Planets are tremendously closer than the stars are. Even the closest star (other than the sun, which is also a star) is tens of thousands of times farther away than the most distant planet in our solar system.


In what way do planets look different from stars?

Firstly, planets are way way smaller than the stars! That's because you can see stars in the night but never planets. Also stars produce nuclear energy in their core so they give thermal ( heat ) energy. Also stars have more gravity than planets.


What are two ways that planets are different from stars?

1) Although planets can be composed primarily of rock or gas, only stars are objects made of gas that are massive enough to support a nuclear fusion reaction. 2) Although planets and stars can orbit stars (as in binary systems), stars never orbit planets.


How does gravity affect the stars moon an planets?

Gravity keeps the planets in orbit around the sun and the stars and the stars in orbit around the center of the galaxy. Gravity also holds the stars together against their own internal pressure.


What is more noticeable in planets than stars?

I don't think that there is anything noticeable in planets than stars but moon isn't bad ,I mean to say it is also noticeable!!!


Is astonomy just about stars?

No. Astronomy has to do with stars, planets, comets, and everything else that has to do with space. The orbits of planets, constellations, and history of space exploration is also a part of astronomy.


What are the order of these stars from smallest to largest?

mercury venus earth mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus neptune * * * * * VERY SERIOUSLY WRONG! All these are planets not stars! Also, they are in the order of their distance from the sun (a star) rather than in order of size.


What are the bright lights in night sky that are NOT stars or planets?

The moving bright lights may be aircraft, satellites, or meteors. The bright points that are not stars or planets may also be galaxies, asteroids, comets, or the moons of planets.


Are there other planets Andromeda galaxy?

We expect the Andromeda galaxy to be just like our own Milky Way galaxy. We can see stars (suns) in the Andromeda Galaxy and just as stars have planets orbiting them in our galaxy, we believe that there must be planets also orbiting stars in the Andromeda galaxy.


Are stars distant planets?

Stars are not planets. They are like our sun and may or may not have planets orbiting around them. Stars are hot and the heat makes them look like bright lights in the sky on a clear night. Planets do not create very much, if any, visible light and are much harder to see because they only reflect the light from stars.


What is the difference of the stars and the planets?

Planets are large rocky or gaseous bodies found orbiting a star. Stars are are much larger bodies of gas, who have sufficient pressure and heat to sustain fusion. Planets are much smaller compared to stars. Stars also give out energy in the form of light (sun rays) planets just absorb it. Ex. the sun is a star, earth is a planet.
