Life Cycle of a Star :)
Across
- 3. The point where the outward force from fusion and inward force from gravity are balanced.
- 5. What is a large cloud of dust and gas in space?
- 7. small and dense star that is left over after a supernova.
- 10. What is a rotating neutron star called?
- 11. What is the name of a failed star that does not have enough mass to undergo fusion of hydrogen to helium.
- 12. a luminous body of gas that shines because of fusion within the core.
- 13. Hot dense core leftover after the star's outer layers escape into space.
Down
- 1. What is left over after a red giant expands?
- 2. gigantic explosion when a massive star collapses.
- 4. What is the end state of an average mass star where the inner helium core contracts leading the outer layers to expand?
- 6. What is the end state of a massive star where the core collapses to a point that gravity is so strong not even light can escape?
- 8. What are very large stars that will end in a supernova called?
- 9. What is the name of a very young star that still gathers mass from its parent molecular cloud?
