massive stars, ten to a hundred times bigger than our Sun,have a life story different from the one illustrated here.
they eventually explode,creating a supernova. all the matter from which they are made may collapse back on itself under gravity.not even light can escape from the collapsing star.it becomes a 'black hole' invisible to even the most powerful telescope.

WHY IS THE SUN YELLOW?
the colour of a star depends on how hot it is- and this, in turn , depends on its size and age. our sun is a star of medium size and brightness, with a surface temperature of about 5500 C (10000 F), which makes it look yellow. as it gets older and uses up more of its energy, the surface temperature will drop to about 4000 C (7200 F) and it will look red. when it has exhausted almost all of its energy, the sun will collapse and heat up briefly in a white flare.
WHAT MAKES THE SUN SHINE?

WILL THE SUN LAST FOREVER??

Light rays from the sun are made up of violet,inaigo,blue,green,yellow,orange and red rays. When these rays pass though he atmosphere, they are scattered in a different directions.During daytimes, water droplets and gas molecules scatter blue light rays, making the sky look blue. In the evening ,the atmosphere can be full of dust particles.these scatter the red light rays,creating red sunsets.
