The best ways would be to use radio or infrared light to see newborn stars, because even the darkest and coldest stars will show up brightly. Visible wavelengths do not allow you to see past the dusty, cloud-filled areas around a star that is forming.
It did not give an estimate on a time frame for the gas surrounding Eta Carinae. The source mainly explained how the gas and dust is surrounding Eta Carinae and blocking it from outside forces.
Why Angular Momentum is important in the creating of a new star?
ReplyDeleteIt ensures that the rotation of the cloud speeds up, so the cloud can shrink and flatten.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the easiest/best way to view newborn stars or the process of creating stars? Visible light/Infrared/radio/etc.

ReplyDeleteDid your source estimate how long the gas and dust from the Great Eruption are expected to surround Eta Carinae?

DeleteTell me what a protostar is.
ReplyDeleteA protostar is a contracting mass of gas that represents an early stage in the formation of a star, before nucleosynthesis has begun.
DeleteWhich stage do you think is the most difficult for stars?
ReplyDeleteI believe the first stage is the most difficult for stars because of the increasing amount of thermal energy and internal pressure.
DeleteHow do you measure the size of a newborn star?
ReplyDeleteAstronomers are able to measure the size of newborn stars in correlation to the radius of our sun
DeleteWhat is the percentage of stars in the main sequence?
ReplyDelete90 percent of stars are in the main sequence
