Stars are born from giant clouds of gas and dust. Imagine a big, fluffy cloud in space, like a giant cotton candy. When it gets squeezed by gravity, it starts to warm up until it becomes so hot that it shines, just like a star! This process is called stellar formation.
Examples
- A giant cloud in space is like a giant snow globe, when it gets squeezed, it starts to glow.
- Stellar formation is like baking a cake: you mix ingredients (gas and dust), put them in an oven (gravity), and wait for the star to rise.
- Imagine a baby star being fed by its cosmic mother, that’s how stars grow.
