what is the fastest star?
409741
If you are talking about the faster spinning star, then that would be a neutron star.  However there was recently some info on the fasting moving star across our sky, see this site ...\n\nhttp://www.jb.man.ac.uk/news/fastestpulsar.html\n\nThis star is moving so quickly, 1100 kilometers per second, that it could get from New York to London in 5 seconds

As much as I hate to belie the replies of fellow answerers, I have to point out that the only cat to break 60 mph is the cheetah.  Of the tiger subspecies, the siberian tiger is the fastest as it often has to chase down prey over considerable stretches of open spaces.  It can reach an impressive 50 mph for short spurts.  The link below has some great information on the siberian tiger, the largest and most powerful cat on the planet.

Well, I have three answers for you, and I think they are all right.\n\nThe pronghorn is the second fastest land animal in the world, it can reach speeds of 60 mph, and can maintain 45mph for several minutes. (probably the answer you wanted)\n\nThe peregrine falcon which nests in North America's tundra, and migrates as far as South America, can reach speeds of 200+ mph while diving and is considered to be the fastest animal on Earth. (maybe the answer you wanted)\n\nBut, personally, I like to think of the cheetah as the fastest animal on Earth (since it runs on its own power at over 70 mph, instead of diving like the peregrine falcon), and so, i say that the fastest animal in North America would be all the cheetahs in zoos/ wildlife reserves. (probably not the answer you want, but I'm giving it to you anyway! ;-) )

Look for North Star !!

while these answers are correct on the minimum mass necessary to sustain hydrogen fusion (Look up "L" stars), they miss the boat on why stars cannot be more massive than a certain amount.  \n\nAs you may know, as you look at more and more massive they become brighter much faster than you might expect (for instance a star ten times as massive as the sun may be about 3000 times brighter!).  They get a little bigger, but mostly they become more luminous per area.  At some point they are so luminous that atoms on the surface are lifted off in a stellar wind quite rapidly.  Extremely massive stars evaporate quite quickly, reducing their mass and thus their luminosity until they are not evaporating so quickly.\n\nWiki has an OK treatment of this concept which was originally applied to the problem of how quickly an object can accrete material. \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddington_limit\n\nThe actual luminosity limit is lower, because the effective cross section of the gas to photon interactions is dependent on opacity. For pure hydrogen the electron scattering cross section is the one to use, but as soon as you put in a few heavy elements (heavier than helium) it goes up very quickly for even small concentrations. So far, amongst non-primordial stars, the most massive ones we seem to see are around 100 times the mass of the sun.  60 is the lowest upper limit I have ever heard and 120 is about the highest.\n\nEarly first generation stars made from pure primordial hydrogen, helium and a dash of lithium would very likely only be limited by the opacity used in the Eddington limit. I estimate these guys would top out around 200 solar masses.

The fastest land speed record car is the British-designed Thrust SSC, the first car to break the sound barrier with a speed of 1227kph (around 761mph), or Mach 1.01.\n\nThe fastest production car in the world is the 1001bhp 16-cylinder Bugatti Veyron 16.4: 0-100kph in 2.5 seconds, top speed limited electronically at 407kph to prevent tire damage, the fastest accelerating production car at 100kph, 160kph(100mph), 200kph, 300kph and 320kph(200mph). Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson said that if a Veyron and a McLaren F1, the previous fastest car, were put on the line together, if the F1 would be going at 120mph when the Bugatti is at a standstill, it won't get to 200mph before the Veyron.\nIt's a truly amazing car.

The biggest known star is the Pistol Star.Its size is about 100 times the Sun!It is ten million times brighter than the sun.It is also largest in terms of volume.   Born up to three million years ago, the Pistol Star may have weighed up to 200 times the mass of the Sun before shedding much of its weight in violent eruptions that began about 4,000 to 6,000 years ago.The Pistol Star is invisible to the naked eye because it is hidden 25,000 light-years away behind great dust clouds in the center of our Milky Way Galaxy.It is located in Pistol Nebula in the centre of Milky Way Galaxy.

The next nearest star to earth (after the sun) is Proxima Centauri.\nWhat's really scary is that it would take you 4 years, travleing at light speed, to reach that star(space ships only travel 5 mi. per sec.) so in other words we aren't getting there any time soon. Hope this helped.

Infrared.  The more massive the main sequence star, the hotter it is.  The hotter an object is, the more energetic its peak wavelength is.

Don't know which is strongest, but hot is fastest.\n\nYou can catch cold.

The closest star to the Earth is the actually Sun, at a distance of 8.3 light minutes (93 million miles), but I suppose you weren't asking about that. \n\nThe next closest star is Alpha Centauri, which is 4.3 light years away.

The fastest speed for any single object is c. Sometimes it's also useful to refer to the speed at which the relative distance between two objects is changing. The maximum value allowed by special relativity for that is 2c, but in cosmology the distance between two objects billions of lightyears apart could be changing at an even faster rate because of the expansion of the space.

The fastest car in the world is the 1001 horsepower Bugatti Veyron. But the 'best' car is completely subjective. In my opinion, the fastest, and even a little practical, and best looking, is the McLaren F1.

Galaxies are huge clusters of billions of stars.  Smaller hunks of stars are called "clusters"  -- but once they get really _REALLY_ big, they're called galaxies. \n\nSolar systems are systems of planets and other hunks of rock orbiting a SINGLE STAR...   so, the Earth and the other planets are part of OUR solar system,  orbiting the sun.  Other suns have OTHER solar systems where DIFFERENT planets are orbiting. \n\nThe speed of light is REALLY REALLY FAST. \n\nIf you turn on a light on the moon, no one on earth will see the light for almost two seconds because it took the light that long to get here. \n\nBut the speed of light is _SO FAST_ that even going from New York to Las Angeles, all the way across the United States it only takes about two one-hundredths of a second to get there (0.016 seconds) \n\nThis shows two things, the moon is a LONG ways away,and light is VERY VERY FAST.  The speed of light is 186000 (one hundred and eighty six thousand) miles per second.  A rifle bullet travels only around two to three thousand miles per hour.  So, light is two hundred thousand  times faster than a speeding bullet.  Really REALLY fast.

Until now, the velocity of light is still the fastest which is about 350km/sec, and no other means can go faster than this.

Tachyons, although they were originally theoretical particles, have been proved to exist through some kind of experiment that to be honest I don't stand a snowball's chance in a volcano of understanding. However, they do move faster than the speed of light, and so at the moment are seen as the fastest moving object in space. Doubtless, however, there are faster particles that have yet to be discovered, or even theorised upon.
