When a star runs out of fuel, its outer layers of gas
are blown outward.

nebulas.

together.

Classifying Stars
Color
Temperature

Star Temperature
Surface Temperature = Color
Blue-white White yellow orange red
Hottest *Sun coolest

Compare the sizes of Stars
Our Sun is a medium sized Star

Star Brightness (magnitude)
Absolute Magnitude: the “Real”
brightness of the star. How much
light it really gives off.(Need to
know the distance to the Star)
Apparent Magnitude: How bright
the star appears to be.
![Page 22: Lesson 13: Stars - Weebly](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020917/61bf24cd9a84e34216215f84/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Star Distance
Measured in Light-Years
Light-Year: The distance light travels in a year. (9.5 million million Kilometers)
5.87849981 × 1012 miles (6 trillion miles)
Speed of light: 186,000 Miles/second
300,000 Kilometers/Second

Finding the Distance to Stars
Parallax: The “apparent “ shift
that a star has over a period of
Time
The closer the object, the more
it will shift position in the sky
