Fusion in stars are usually the result of gravity.Once a mass of hydrogen accumulates enough mass, the gravity of all that mass compresses the core of the star to the point that the hydrogen atoms there begin fusing into helium. The process then cascades outward, and the end result is a star.

What else can I help you with?

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 process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?

Nuclear Fusion

What are stars powered by?

Stars are powered by nuclear fusion

What are powers stars?

Stars are powered by nuclear fusion

How do stars get their energy?

Nuclear Fusion

What gas giant has nuclear fusion on it?

None. Nuclear fusion occurs in stars. Jupiter, for example, has all the right ingredients to be a star but as huge as it is, it doesn't have enough mass to generate the heat and internal pressure facilitate nuclear fusion. Hope this helps :-)

Nuclear fission where is it found?

stars.... stars are made of hydrogen, helium, and nuclear fusion

How does nuclear energy get created naturally?

Nuclear fusion in the stars

Do all stars release energy as a result of nuclear fusion?

Yes, all stars release energy due to nuclear fusion.

What are all-stars driven by?

Stars are driven by Nuclear Fusion.

How is nuclear fusion important in stars?

That's how stars get their energy.

How do stars producer light?

Stars get their energy from nuclear fusion.
