Star | Definition, Light, Names, Facts | Britannica A star is any massive self-luminous celestial body of gas that shines by radiation derived from its internal energy sources Of the tens of billions of trillions of stars in the observable universe, only a very small percentage are visible to the naked eye
Stars - NASA Science A star’s gas provides its fuel, and its mass determines how rapidly it runs through its supply, with lower-mass stars burning longer, dimmer, and cooler than very massive stars
