Stars obtain energy through the majority of their lives by the process of thermonuclear fusion of the nuclei of light elements to produce nuclei of heavier elements. Initially the processes fuses hydrogen nuclei, producing helium nuclei (similar to what hydrogen bombs do), but the process ceases when it produces nickel and iron nuclei at which point the star begins dying as it has run out of nuclear fuel.

What does the stars have to do with nuclear energy?
Because the process whereby the star produces energy is nuclear fusion, hydrogen becomes helium with release of energy
