How does this planet compare to the hot Jupiters discovered around other stars?
Small & cold.
What is formed as a ball of hot gases revolving around the Sun?
stars
Is it true that Hydrogen and Helium were formed by nuclear reaction in the stars and other elements were formed after the Big Bang?
Close, but not exactly. Hydrogen is not formed by nuclear reactions in stars, hydrogen was formed not long after the Big Bang, when the expanding universe had cooled sufficiently that an electron and a proton could combine to form a hydrogen atom. Helium and all the other elements that are heavier than hydrogen, were formed by the process of nuclear fusion, in stars.
How is the planet HD 189733b possible?
Planets like HD 189733 b, sometimes called "hot Jupiters" are one of the most common types of planets to be detected, largely because they are the easiest to detect. Such planets likely form at a great distance from their parent stars, but their orbits decay, bringing them extremely close to their stars. Hot Jupiters often slowly lose their atmospheres.
What elements are formed in cool stars?
Elements that are formed in cool stars are heavy but not heavier than iron. (Elements that are heavier than iron are formed in a supernova.)
How does this planet compare to the hot Jupiters discovered around other stars?
Small & cold.
Where were all of the other elements formed?
they formed from different types of stars!
How do scientists think that stars were formed?
Scientist think that stars are formed from thick clouds of dust and gases whirling around space.
What is the planet bigger than Jupiter?
Jupiter is the biggest planet in the solar system. However there have been 'super Jupiters' found orbiting other stars.
What is formed as a ball of hot gases revolving around the Sun?
stars
What else was formed when the earth was formed?
The other planets, stars, galaxies, meteors, comets, and asteroids.
When two stars are near each other and rotate around each other they form an?
The larger more formed star would absorb the smaller star, I'm pretty sure having two stars that close is impossible.
Is it true that the number of stars is declining as stars burn out?
no. the new stars are constantly formed in nebulae from dust from other stars that have either gone supernova or imploded on itself
How are blue stars formed from protostars?
All stars are formed from protostars.
How are galaxies and stars formed?
stars are formed when particles of matter in space attract to each other beacause of gravity and form clumps slowy increasing their mass and gravity and attracting more particles eventually forming stars many stars orbiting or clustered around a mass large enough to have a great amount of gravity is a galaxy. these large masses are usually thought to be black holes. usually many galaxies orbit around a laarge black hole
Where were the elements that are found in nature formed'?
Hydrogen and helium are thought to be formed during the Big Bang. We also know that helium is formed in stars during the process of stellar evolution. The other elements formed in stars during stellar evolution and end-of-life stellar events (like a supernova). It could be said that with the exception of hydrogen, all the elements formed in stars during one phase or another of the life of stars. This though minute quantities of some isotopes that are found in nature appear in the decay chains of other isotopes and were not themselves created in stars as described.
