Stars
Stars are born in the interstellar medium by the gravitational collapse of gas and dust within interstellar molecular clouds which have mass many times greater than the mass of a single star. Starbirth results from Gravitational Instability, followed by
Gravitational Collapse.
Most stars in the sky that appear to be single are actually made up of two or more objects revolving around each other. Double stars are called "double" even when three or more stars …showed first 75 words of 1208 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1208 total…in stars produces a force that pushes the material in a star
outward. However, the gravitational attraction of the star's material for itself pulls the material inward. A star can remain stable as long as the outward pressure and gravitational force balance. The properties of a star depend on its mass, its temperature, and its stage in evolution. Stars have an amazing history on how they are sorted by astronomers into different types and categories.
