What is hotter planets or stars?
Stars are hotter than planets. Stars are massive balls of gas that produce heat and light through nuclear reactions in their cores, while planets do not produce their own heat and rely on the heat they receive from the star they orbit.
Would you expect stars in the halo of the galaxy to have planets?
It is less likely for stars in the halo of a galaxy to have planets compared to stars in the disk of the galaxy. This is because the halo contains older stars with fewer heavy elements necessary for planet formation. However, some planets could still exist around halo stars, but they would be rare.
Do stars orbit planets or planets orbit stars?
Planets orbit stars.
How big are stars to planets?
Planets are a lot bigger than stars except the sun... the sun is a star. So to me the answer is a star is bigger and the stars are also smaller.Let's think about the actual sizes, not just how they appear in the sky.You may be thinking of the apparent sizes as seen from Earth. Stars like our Sun are a lot bigger than planets and there's lots of stars bigger than the Sun.However there are also stars a lot smaller than the Sun. So some stars aresmaller than some planets.For example "white dwarfs" have a lot more mass than the Earth, but they arenot much bigger.Let's be clear though, most stars are bigger than planets.
Planets always shine brighter than stars?
Planets do not always shine brighter than stars; their brightness varies depending on their position relative to Earth and the Sun. Planets reflect sunlight, making them appear bright, but their visibility can fluctuate based on factors like distance and alignment. Some stars can outshine planets significantly, especially in cases of particularly bright stars or during certain astronomical events. Overall, while planets can be bright, they are not inherently brighter than all stars at all times.
Are there more stars than planets?
Yes. 200 billions stars and 8 planets in our solar system.
Which is bigger the planet or the star?
On the whole stars are much larger than planets, but there are some dwarf stars that are smaller than giant planets.
Why do planets seem brighter than stars?
Some planets seem brighter - not all of them. Planets are quite near to us, as compared to the stars.
In what way do planets look different from stars?
Firstly, planets are way way smaller than the stars! That's because you can see stars in the night but never planets. Also stars produce nuclear energy in their core so they give thermal ( heat ) energy. Also stars have more gravity than planets.
How large are stars compared with planets?
Almost all stars are significantly larger than almost all planets.
Are there more Stars or Planets?
there are more planets than stars because to every star there could have several planets
Is 250 planets larger than 100 stars and 100 asteroids?
YES, 100 stars and 100 asteroids are larger than 250 planets
What is bigger a planet or a star?
Stars are much bigger than planets. The only stars that are smaller than planets are neutron stars.
Can blue stars get colder than planets?
No. Blue stars are the hottest stars, far hotter than any planet.
What is hotter planets or stars?
Stars are hotter than planets. Stars are massive balls of gas that produce heat and light through nuclear reactions in their cores, while planets do not produce their own heat and rely on the heat they receive from the star they orbit.
What are star planets called?
That doesn't make sense. There are stars, and there are planets. If you mean "planets around stars, other than the Sun", those are usually called "extrasolar planets" or "exoplanets".
Why do planets appear brighter than stars?
Planets appear brighter than stars because they reflect more sunlight and have larger apparent sizes in the night sky compared to distant stars. Stars emit light due to nuclear fusion in their cores, while planets reflect light from the Sun, making them appear brighter to us on Earth.
