Plasma is a very high energy state of matter that is usually only found at high temperatures. Stars are extremely hot, which easily allows the development of plasma. Earth is much cooler, which makes it difficult for plasma to form. Plasma can still be found in lightning bolts and fire.

Why is plasma found in stars but rarely on earth?
Throughout the Universe, plasma is the most common form of matter, making up over 99% of the visible Universe. The Sun and all the stars are plasma, as is the interplanetary medium (space between the planets), the interstellar medium (space between the stars), and intergalactic medium (space between the galaxies). On Earth, plasma is found in the aurora, the ionosphere, in fire, and lightning, and at the Earth's core. For more information, see: http://www.plasma-universe.com/
