Why are so few stars in both the table of Nearby Stars and The Brightest Stars?

I am pretty sure the table you consulted lists only the extremes - but of course you can have thousands or even millions of "near" stars and "bright" stars, depending on how far down the list you go. Note that any list of the first thousand (for example) nearest stars would probably be incomplete, since there are many dim stars (red dwarves) that are very hard to detect.

All elements in the reriodic table with atomic numbers greathe than of the element are formed by the explosions of collapsing stars?
a. hydrogen :)
Can stars the size of the sun produce elements heavier than oxygen?
Yes, oxygen can be found in the spectral lines of many stars. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stars are nuclear fusion furnaces that take light elements (hydrogen) and build them up into heavier elements (eg carbon and oxygen). Thus older and second or third generation stars have this element in their makeup.
Where would you find metal ores?
Metal is found in the surface of earth. It is present in earth's mantle.
What are the extraterrestrial elements on the periodic table?
The Periodic Table is a chart of all known elements. There is no terrestrial significance of the chart, it represents all known elements in the universe. As the materials that make up the Earth, and everything that is on it, originate as debris from exploding stars billions of years ago we can safely say that all the elements on the Periodic Table are extraterrestrial in origin. [To be picky, there will some nuclear decay products that were formed here on Earth but they too will exist extraterrestrially] Beano UK
What is stars generally made of?
Mostly Hydrogen. The star is so hot that hydrogen atoms can fuse together to make helium atoms. This is nuclear fusion and it gives of loads of energy. Other heavier elements also form - probably a bit of everything.
What Create most of the elements on the periodic table?
Stars - by nuclear fusion, by supernova explosions, and by colliding neutron stars.
How many stars does a competition table tennis ball have?
3, it is the highest ranking.
What is the second most massive star known?
Look in the link below for a table of the most massive stars.
What do the stars on a table tennis ball represent?
Stars on ping pong balls represents the quality of the ping pong ball. They go from a scale of 1 star to 3 stars where 1 is the lowest and 3 is the highest representing that the ball was made from high quality plastic and bounces better.
Where do scientists believe chmical evolution occurred?
The higher elements are forged in the center of stars. Most stars can create up to about element 6-8 on the periodic table, but any elements higher than that require a super nova.
All elements in the reriodic table with atomic numbers greathe than of the element are formed by the explosions of collapsing stars?
a. hydrogen :)
What is the relationship between the periodic table and a supernova?
The elements on the periodic table were created by stars through nuclear fusion. We use the term stellar nucleosynthesis to describe what stars are doing through fusion. Stars fuse hydrogen into helium, and then start making heavier elements by a different fusion process. But stars can only make elements up through iron. They can't make the heavier elements. Enter the supernova. A supernova is that "big blast" that occurs at the end of the life of some stars. In a supernova, the trans-iron elements are formed. That is, all the elements heavier than iron are formed in a supernova. Because the elements heavier than iron are formed in a supernova, we can say that there is a relationship between the supernova and the periodic table of elements.
How do scientists use spectroscope to gather information about stars?
Scientists can use spectroscopes to gather information because the light from the stars that passes through has a certain color. Each element on the Periodic Table has a specific color. This way, scientist can figure out of which gases the star consists of.
What is the actual name of those circular blades that assassins in movies throw?
Japanese throwing stars. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assume they meant Shuriken for the "stars". But if you really mean "circular" as in full on rings, then they're known as Chakram. Smaller rings are Quoit. Or for the truly low brow, "Chinese stars". Coming to a flea market table near you! Only a movie assassin would not loath these for use in taking anothers life.
Does anyone still make poop?
doubtful. current table tennis balls usually have a 3-star rating system, with 3 stars being the best.
In 'Table for 12' would Paramore and the Jonas Brothers ever think to guest star in one of there episodes and make it a 2 hour long episode or not?
TLC cancelled "Table for 12" in 2010. During production of "Table for 12" there were no plans to have any guest stars.
How do you get a wizards hat on Club Penguin?
First you go to the beach on club penguin. Then you go to the light house and there will be a table with a blue wizards hat with white stars on it. Click it and there you have it.
