The term is "protostar", not "prostar". Yes. A protostar is an early stage of a star.
When matter is pulled into a protostar, it heats up and increases in density. This process leads to the formation of a protostar as gravitational forces pull matter towards the center, eventually igniting nuclear fusion and forming a stable star.
To see images of a protostar, one would go inside a Bok Globule. This might be hard to do, considering the fact that a protostar is the gas of a giant molecular cloud. But hey, if you can get there, it'd be a sight to see!
A protostar becomes balanced when the gravitational forces pulling matter inward are balanced by the outward pressure due to nuclear fusion at its core. This marks the transition from a contracting protostar to a stable star in the main sequence phase of its lifecycle.
Astronomy was first discovered in the times of ancient Greece
No one. It comes from the Greek - proto - meaning first. So first star - a protostar.
Wiktionary: "Prototypical; preceding the proper beginning of something". That sounds about right, for a protostar.
The formation of a protostar from a nebula. As the protostar forms, it accretes more mass from the cloud and spins. As it gains more mass, it eventually becomes massive enough to ignite the core and become a star. The protostar is the first step in the evolution of any star.
A Protostar.
As gravity collapses the cloud to form a protostar, the temperature and luminosity both increase. The increase in temperature is due to the compression of material, causing the protostar to heat up as energy is released. The increase in luminosity is a result of the protostar radiating this energy.
A protostar takes about 100,000 years to reach the main sequence.
A protostar is more like a stage previous to a star - before it ignites.
A protostar is the first part in the birth of a star. It's age, relative to itself is very young, anywhere between 0 and 100,000 years.
The "protostar". That's not classed as a true star, but I think that's the answer.
The term is "protostar", not "prostar". Yes. A protostar is an early stage of a star.
No. The sun was a protostar about 4.6 billion years ago.
the color of the protostar is red
