How do stars form in a Nebula

Nebulea are made of dust and gases—mostly hydrogen and helium.

  • The dust and gases in a nebula are very spread out, but gravity can slowly begin to pull together clumps of dust and gas.

As these clumps get bigger and bigger, their gravity gets stronger and stronger. Eventually, the clump of dust and gas gets so big that it collapses from its own gravity.

  • The collapse causes the material at the center of the cloud to heat up-and this hot core is the beginning of a star.

About 4 billion years ago, Saturn settled into its current position in the outer solar system, where it is the sixth planet from th...

The composition of jupiter is similar to that of the Sun - mostly hydrogen and helium. Deep in the atmosphere, pressure and temperature increase, compressing the hydrogen gas into a liquid. 

This gives Jupiter the largest ocean in the solar system—an ocean made of hydrogen instead of water....
