The composition of Our Gas Giants may resemble that of Our Sun, yet they have not the Power Of Ignition!

The rocky composition of the inner planets bears no resemblance at all.

Stars are mostly Hydrogen. the core of stars is under so much pressure that the Hydrogen undergoes fusion into Heliun and a few heavier elements. Planets are too small for this to happen.

Which planet was called star of Aphrodite?

The planet Venus was called the "star of Aphrodite" in ancient times, as Aphrodite was the Greek goddess of love and beauty. Venus is often referred to as Earth's "sister planet" due to its similar size and composition.


What is a large body of rock or gas that orbits a star?

A large body of rock or gas that orbits a star is called a planet. Planets are celestial objects that revolve around a star like our Sun due to the force of gravity. These celestial bodies can vary in size and composition.


Can a M-class planet survive in a nebula if with a small star?

Yes, an M-class planet can survive in a nebula, especially if it orbits a small star. The planet's ability to maintain its atmosphere and conditions for habitability would depend on factors such as the density and composition of the nebula, the intensity of radiation from the star, and the planet's distance from the star. If conditions are favorable, the nebula might even provide some protection from cosmic radiation, allowing the planet to thrive.

What are 2 characteristics that affect the temperature of a planet?

Distance from the Sun (for star systems not our own, distance from the primary star(s)) the closer to a star the more energy reaches the planet. Atmospheric composition - how much energy gets to the surface and how much is trapped in. Terrestrial composition; what the solid stuff is made of and how it reacts with stellar/solar energies. Some things reflect light back, others absorb the energy and radiate it back as heat. Also, for planets not around the Sun, the size and energy output (heat) of the star(s) would be factored in. :P


If you are standing on a planet that had a blue giant star as its sun what color would the daylight be?

It would depend on a lot of different factors, such as the composition of the atmosphere, and the position of the planet relative to its star. You would see normally, all spectral colours. The colour of light from the star would have only a negligible, if any, effect on visible light on the planet's surface.


What planet is also a yellow star?

No planet is a star.


All the gases which surround a star or a planet?

The gases that surround a star or planet are commonly referred to as its atmosphere. This gaseous envelope helps regulate temperature, protect from space debris, and play a crucial role in planetary processes such as weather and climate. The composition of the atmosphere can vary widely depending on the celestial body in question.


How does a protostar differ from a star?

It doesn't differ from a star, it is a star and it is the second stage in a stars life after the nebula stage.
