Try entering "starbursting" in your search engine. Google lists about 8700 references. In one case, starbursting is a phenomena in the eye (disorder of the eye), another refers to the star-making cycle in galaxies. It's unclear what exactly you're searching for?\n\nAnyway, try the search, and that may help give you more leads.\n\nGood luck, and have fun!

I sing & drive to release Road Rage.\n\nYes, people see me all the time, I drive a convertible.  Yes, I am dramatic ... Yes, I have danced along while singing? Dunno if people point and laugh 'cas I'm way to into having fun and ignoring the people around me.\n\nI almost got a ticket for bellowing the "Star Spangle Banner" ... my town has a "Noise Ordinance"; but since it was the "Star Spangle Banner", I was allowed to go with a warning.

Planets and stars can both twinkle, its called astronomical scintillation.  In short it is caused by fluctuation in air density and temperature.  Since stars and light both send light to earth (planets reflect a stars light whereas the star produces it's own) the twinkling effect can be seen in either.  And thus if you were standing on another planet, it IS possible that earth would appear to twinkle.  It's not guarenteed, but if the light coming from earth passed through some varying densities and temperatures it could appear to twinkle.  Refer to this article for more on "twinkling":\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scintillation_%28astronomy%29

The scientific name for the twinkling of stars is stellar scintillation (or astronomical scintillation). Stars twinkle when we see them from the Earth's surface because we are viewing them through thick layers of turbulent (moving) air in the Earth's atmosphere. \n\nStars (except for the Sun) appear as tiny dots in the sky; as their light travels through the many layers of the Earth's atmosphere, the light of the star is bent (refracted) many times and in random directions (light is bent when it hits a change in density - like a pocket of cold air or hot air). This random refraction results in the star winking out (it looks as though the star moves a bit, and our eye interprets this as twinkling). \n\nStars closer to the horizon appear to twinkle more than stars that are overhead - this is because the light of stars near the horizon has to travel through more air than the light of stars overhead and so is subject to more refraction. Also, planets do not usually twinkle, because they are so close to us; they appear big enough that the twinkling is not noticeable (except when the air is extremely turbulent). \n\nStars would not appear to twinkle if we viewed them from outer space (or from a planet/moon that didn't have an atmosphere).

First, our sun has a long time to go before it could possibly become a supernova, not for billions and billions of years, so don't worry about it, if you were worrying. OK?\n\nNow, the way a star burns is by fusion, which is building up heavier elements by fusing atoms of lighter elements together. The typical start starts out as hydrogen, and it fuses the hydrogens together into helium. \n\nWhat happens when a star runs out of hydrogen? It starts fusing the heliums together into heavier elements. In order to begin this process, the star has to contract, to squeeze everything together to make the core temperature hotter. \n\nNotice that when the star began to run out of hydrogen, it cooled off a little. So the temperature of the star fluctuates. Its size fluctuates too, since the heat energy partly counteracts the gravity that holds it together.\n\nSo, the star cools off a little, it contracts, and we call this a pulsating or variable star. (This is somewhat of an oversimplification; there are different types of variable stars. But I am ignoring them for purposes of this illustration.) Then the star begins fusing helium, and heats up again. The star expands. \n\nThe outer surface of the star explodes away in what we call a nova-- not a supernova, yet. Some of the gas rushes away and may form what is called a nebula, a cloud. some of thee nebulas give off pretty colors, because, just like a neon sign, the gas in them is excited by the energy of the star and glows.\n\nSo, after repeated cycles of this, and bazillions of years, the star is exhausted. When the star gets iron in its core, there is no turning back. You can't fuse iron into anything. \n\nBut, you say, what about those elements that are heavier than iron, like gold and mercury and uranium? Ah, I'm so glad you asked about that. That is where the supernova comes in. \n\nA supernova is the death of a star. A nova flares up and puts out lots of energy, but the supernova puts out as much energy as the star might have put out over its entire lifetime! The last time there was a supernova in our galaxy (the Crab Nebula was formed) in 1054 AD. The Chinese were the only ones whe were doing much astronomical observation then. \n\nBut it was visible in broad daylight! From LIGHT YEARS away!\n\nWhat happens is this: the star begins to contract one final time. Most of the star blows away, making a really, really impressive nebula. All the elements that were built up in the final explosion-- all the heavy elements beyond iron-- get flung out into space, where they might meet with other elements and form planets and things.\n\nWhat happens to the rest of the star? One of three things, depending on how big it is. If it is little, it may form a white dwarf, a little star that is not so big but is now mostly hydrogen and helium and will last a long time. I think they are supposed to expand into red giants when they are about to burn out, but I don't remember for sure. \n\nIf the star is medium sized, it may become a neutron star. It is no longer buring with fusion like a regular star. The nuclear particles in its core are squeezed together so that protons and electrons have lost their identities and everything is neutrons. This is as solid and dense as matter can get, neutronium. It has an incredibly strong magnetic field, bazillions of times anything on earth.\n\nThe star's axis of rotation may not line up with the magnetic poles (just the way Earth's magnetic poles are not right at the true north and true south poles.) If this hapens, and the magnetic poles are pointed in the right direction, then every time it points our way, we see a little 'flash' of magnetic energy, and we call these 'pulsars'. The first time anybody detected them, they thought they were radio signals from people in space, because they were so regularly-spaced. It is a good thing there are no pulsars near Earth, because the flashes of intense magnetic fields would fry us lik

The place which advertises the most is the International Star Registry (linked below), but frankly you are better off spending your money on something else. The "name" that you give the star will not have any real legal or scientific meaning, so essentially you are paying a lot of money for just a slip of paper. \n\nNote this disclaimer from the small print on their site: "International Star Registry star naming is not recognized by the scientific community. \nYour star’s name is reserved in International Star Registry records only." In other words, they publish a book with the names that their customers have paid for, but frankly anyone could publish a book with any list of names in it. It has no real meaning.\n\nNaming stars is basically a scam.

Have you ever looked at the sky and seen a shooting star?\n\nThese are meteors burning up as the enter the atmosphere.  Is this what you are talking about?

Stars gain their energy through gravitational collapse. \n\nWhen the collapse raises core temperatures and pressures sufficiently, nuclear reactions begin. These reactions produce a lot of energy and a lot of photons. The photon pressure is sufficient to stop further collapse of the star.\n\nWhen the fusion materials are exhausted, collapse resumes. The core temperature and pressure then rise. When they are hot enough, further fusion of larger atoms occurs.\n\nThis continues up the periodic table until fusion is no longer possible. \n\nThe star then coninues to collapse to a very hot, degenerate ball. In some cases the temperature on the surface then gets high enough to cause a catastropic runaway fusion reaction of the helium on the surface, because the rate of fusion of helium is temperature dependent. \n\nThe start the explodes as a supernova. This throws off some matter (though not actually that much). The very high energy of the explosion is enough to produce heavier elements through nucleosynthesis.\n\nWhat is left is a tiny but very very hot star called a white dwarf. Because it is so tiny, it does not radiate much energy (it has a small surface area) so it is quite dim.

Yes it is called sunburst.  You can find the template in Adobe Photoshop.

Galactic collisions trigger vast starburst regions.  In other words, billions of new suns form as a result of the tidal gravitational forces of two galaxies interacting with each other.  Billions of new suns equals billions of new chances for life to form, so it is now thought that galactic collisions are no mere accidents but part of the grand design for populating the universe with life.  Such galactic interactions take hundreds of millions of years, so no video would show any actual movement.  However, you can find some great pictures of galaxies in the process of merging on NASA's website.  Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, will do a little dance with our next door neighbor galaxy, the Andromeda, in a billion years or so.  The two galaxies will do a little do-se-do and the bigger galaxy (the Andromeda) will steal a lot of the Milky Way's stars and at the same time each galaxy will erupt with billions of new blue giant suns.  Should be quite a show.

WHAT IS A HEAT BURST?  \n\n\nMETEOROLOGIST JEFF HABY\n\nA heat burst is a downdraft of hot and dry air that typically occurs in the evening or overnight hours. A heatburst is much more rare than a severe thunderstorm. Thus, the atmospheric conditions have to be just right for a heat burst to occur. Heat bursts usually happen in the evening or at night after thunderstorms are ending. Thus, a thunderstorm has a vital role. Two other characteristics are that the air must start its descent from fairly high up and the environmental air aloft needs to be very dry. Precipitation falling into very dry air aloft will cause the air to cool through latent heat absorption. If the air is very high aloft and the air is much more dense than the surrounding air then it will accelerate toward the surface. In the case of a heat burst, all the precipitation that cooled the air aloft has been vaporized. Therefore, the precipitation can no longer absorb latent heat. As this dense air accelerates toward the surface it rapidly warms at a dry adiabatic lapse rate compression. What must make a heat burst so rare is that this downdraft must reach extremely high velocities. Velocities must be high enough so that the momentum of the sinking air offsets the fact that it is becoming warmer in temperature and thus less dense than the environmental air it is falling into.\n\nNot only is the air in a heat burst anomalously hot but it is also extremely dry. The extremely high temperatures combined with extremely dry air plus the wind can remove all the moisture out of vegetation. Just like any atmospheric phenomena, heat bursts have differing intensities. The worst heat bursts persist for a significant amount of time and have temperatures that go over 120 F, even in the middle of the night. This extremely hot and dry air can remain in place for several hours before temperatures return to normal. \n\nA microburst occurs through the same process except that the origin of the microburst is not as high aloft as a heatburst. Thus, the microburst is not able to get as much adiabatic compression as a heatburst. Often a microburst will not lose all of it's precipitation before hitting the ground. If precipitation is within sinking air, evaporational cooling will partially offset the adiabatic compressional warming.

The conversion of light elements into heavy elements, hydrogen into helium and on right up to iron, by atomic fusion. This is how a star shines. When the iron stage is reached the Sun has run out of fuel and the equilibrium between thermal forces and gravity is lost and gravity wins, resulting in the collapse into a white dwarf after going Nova and spreading its heavy elements into space. That's right we are all made of star stuff! JULES

Observed from Earth’s surface, stars appear to twinkle because the atmosphere bends light on its way to the ground.  Stars are so far away that they appear as points of light in the sky, so when the atmosphere bends light from a star, it actually prevents the light from the star from reaching our eyes entirely—in other words, the tiny beam of light from the star that could reach our eyes at that point in time gets deflected away from our eyes briefly.  Thus, stars appear to twinkle on and off.  At one instant, a star’s light reaches your eye; at the next instant, it doesn’t.\n\nThe sun is simply too large to twinkle.  Yeah, one beam of light may get scattered away (perhaps to enhance the blueness of our sky), but the beam of light next to it will make it to your eyes, and on average, the whole sun appears nice and bright and untwinkling in the sky.  (Likewise, the moon doesn’t appear to twinkle, either.)\n\nIn space, there’s no atmosphere, no air to change the trajectory of light reaching your eyes (assuming your eyes are safely enclosed in a spacesuit with the rest of you), so the stars will not twinkle.  \n\n\nRyan Wyatt\nRose Center for Earth & Space\nNew York, New York
