4. Introduction
Stars evolve along million years.
• Birth of the stars
• Stages:
- Principal sequence
- Maturity
- Old age

5. Nebula
• Definition: it is a giant cloud with different
forms.
• Composition: hydrogen, helium and cosmic
dust.
• Localization: interstellar media.
• Purpose: it is the place where stars born.
6. Types
-Dark nebula: a cloud of dust
and cold gas that doesn’t
emit visible light.
-Diffuse reflection
nebula: it is made up of
hydrogen and blue dust.
7. -Emission nebula: it is the
most common type of visible
nebula, it emits light.
Hydrogen atoms excite
ultraviolet light to produce
energy.
-Planetary nebula: it is
made off gas balls and
fluorescent matter. It
emits gas from dead
stars stars.
8. -Reflection nebula: it is a cloud of dust that
reflects light from other stars but it doesn’t
emit enough light for the nebula to illuminate.
