Why do the stars shine?. planets shine by reflected sunlight—but what generates the Sun’s light?. What does starlight tell us about the stars?. their temperature. Our Evolving Universe. 1. Introduction: The Night Sky. What do we see in the night sky?. the Moon. moving planets. occasional comets and meteors. against a background of randomly scattered “fixed” stars and the band of the Milky Way. Our Evolving Universe. 1. Understanding Stars. What do we know?. From observations of nearby stars:. luminosity/absolute magnitude. colour/spectral class/ surface temperature. chemical composition. From observations of binary systems:. Uma Lad. PHY 3305: Modern Physics. December 2, 2014. Outline. . Fission and fusion will be defined. . Examples of fission and fusion will be discussed. .
