Yes, stars can explode and die, a process often referred to as a supernova. This typically occurs at the end of a massive star's life cycle when it exhausts its nuclear fuel, leading to a catastrophic collapse of its core followed by an explosive outburst. Smaller stars end their lives more quietly, shedding their outer layers to form planetary nebulae, while the core remains as a white dwarf. These stellar deaths play a crucial role in enriching the universe with elements necessary for the formation of new stars and planets.
Most do not. Stars about 10 times more massive than the sun or larger will explode. Smaller stars shed their outer layers gradually.
The elements do not die. The stars collapse into dense dwarf or neutron stars. But many explode as novae and the elements are scattered into space. This is the dust from which the next generation of planets are born.
When smaller stars explode (like our Sun), they leave a nebula cloud by releasing their gas and they become a small but dense white dwarf star.When big stars explode (like Betelgeuse), they have a massive explosion called a supernova and the core of the star turns into a black hole or a pulsar.
No, stars have a life cycle. They form, go through various stages depending on size, and eventually cease to exist. Some may explode in supernovae, while others may become white dwarfs or black holes. Ultimately, all stars will eventually burn out and die.
Smaller stars like our own expand into a red giant and then eventually collapse into a white dwarf, the more larger stars like a bright giant star expand into a hyper giant or a super giant. Super giant stars can go supernova and collapse into a neutron star, a white dwarf, or a black hole. The hyper giant stars go hypernova and make a gamma ray that eventually ends into a black hole.
Some stars explode in a supernova.
Yes but they do eventually cool down and if they do they explode and die
Percentage wise. Most stars do not explode. Only about 1 in 3 million will explode as a supernova. The rest, like our Sun will just die quietly and become white dwarfs.
No. Only the most massive stars explode.
stars explode
Depends on which 5 stars
Some stars do. They can be nova or supernova stars, depending on the scale of the explosion.

well it depends on the star. not all stars explode. small to medium sized stars just go into a planetary nebula after they swell up to a red giant then the bigger stars do explode, they have a super nova after the swell up into a super giant. but dont worry i star will not explode... its a really small star. --- nichole brooks :)
Massive stars are most likely to explode faster than smaller stars.
no you would not explode you will most likely die but not explode
