The hydrogen line or "shine" is the frequency (1420.40575177 MHz) or wavelength (21.10611405413 cm) of electromagnetic energy emitted by an excited hydrogen atom. This is not a "shine" in the sense of visible - it is in the microwave frequency range. It is useful in radio astronomy because it passes through dust clouds that block visible light.

How many stars are there and why they shine?
Innumerable stars are there in the space. Our sun is also a star. Almost all stars shine because of fusion of hydrogen nuclei.
What atom makes the Sun shine?
There is no atom that makes the Sun shine. The Sun is essentially a giant nuclear reactor primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. Nuclear fusion occurs in the sun fusing hydrogen atoms into helium, releasing enormous amounts of energy as heat and light.
Where were helium and and hydrogen formed?
Hydrogen was initially formed in the 'Big Bang' which initiated this universe. Helium is formed by the fusion of hydrogen atoms, inside stars. This reaction is what causes stars to shine, and give off heat.
What is fusion in the sun?
That refers to the conversion of hydrogen-1 to helium-4. This process frees a lot of energy, and is what makes the Sun shine.
Stars Shine Because Of A Process Called?
Nuclear fusion. In the most common case, hydrogen-1 is converted to helium-4.
What is a hydrogen filter for a telescope?
A filter to let through certain wavelenghts of light. The wavelengths that Hydrogen is most active in. Other light does not get through so objects that "shine" in those wavelengths do not show in the image.
What happens to the missing mass when hydrogen atoms fuse to make helium atoms?
It is in the energy that is radiated away.
What part of speech is the word shine?
Shine is a noun (a shine) and a verb (to shine).
