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 are
smaller than some planets.
For example "white dwarfs" have a lot more mass than the Earth, but they are
not much bigger.
Let's be clear though, most stars are bigger than planets.
What else can I help you with?
Do stars orbit planets or planets orbit stars?
Planets orbit stars.
Do many stars have planets around them?
Yes, recent research has found that a large percentage of stars have planetary systems. It is now believed that planets are a common feature in our galaxy, with some stars possibly hosting multiple planets. The discovery of thousands of exoplanets in the last few decades has increased our understanding of the prevalence of planets in the universe.
Can planets of the solar system be found in the Big Dipper?
No, the big dipper (or Ursa Major) is not in the area of the sky that the planets move through. All of the planets, sun and moon are more or less on the same plane, so they all move in the same east/west line across the sky. Ursa Major is more to the north.
Do the stars or dwarf planets orbit planets?
No. Dwarf planets orbit stars just like planets do. Stars orbit the center of their galaxy. An object orbiting a planet would be a moon.
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.
Are stars and planets formed after the Big Bang?
Everything happened after the big bang.
Who did space start?
It started with the big bang. This created the stars and planets
Are star and planet alike?
A star and a planet, both have cores.
What planets has a bigger amount of star?
The big pack of magic stars you get from the cinema
Do stars orbit planets or planets orbit stars?
Planets orbit stars.
Do any planets make up constellation of Big Dipper?
No, they are all stars. Planets do not "make" any constellations but they may be present around a constellation's stars. Also, the big dipper is not a constellation. It's an asterism. It's part of the constellation Ursa Major.
Do planets and moons have stars?
On the contrary! A star has planets, which circulate it. And planets have moons. Stars do not circle planets.
What is the different between ordinary planets and dwarf planets?
ordinary planets are a big part of the solar system dwarf planets aren't that important they are considered like stars or asteroids but mainly dwarf planets
Ehat is the difference between stars and planets?
Stars are massive celestial objects primarily composed of hydrogen and helium that generate energy through nuclear fusion. Planets, on the other hand, are smaller celestial bodies that orbit around stars and do not produce their own light. Planets can be rocky, gaseous, or icy, and they do not undergo nuclear fusion like stars do.
Do many stars have planets around them?
Yes, recent research has found that a large percentage of stars have planetary systems. It is now believed that planets are a common feature in our galaxy, with some stars possibly hosting multiple planets. The discovery of thousands of exoplanets in the last few decades has increased our understanding of the prevalence of planets in the universe.
Which pulling force do planets and stars have?
Planets and stars have gravity.
Can planets of the solar system be found in the Big Dipper?
No, the big dipper (or Ursa Major) is not in the area of the sky that the planets move through. All of the planets, sun and moon are more or less on the same plane, so they all move in the same east/west line across the sky. Ursa Major is more to the north.
