  • High-mass stars are the flashy parts of Stellar Evolution. We see the speedy and violent stellar nucleosynthesis that occurs inside their cores. These extremely rare supergiant stars live short lives and make a lot of stuff. High-mass stars evolve much more rapidly, and their endings are extraordinary. They are responsible for many of the elements that make up your body! This is part of my complete intro Astronomy class that I taught at Willam Paterson University and CUNY Hunter.

    I've corrected a couple mistakes and fixed some serious audio issues.

      Aloha, and a wonderful vid! Is iron's atomic number 56 or 26? Aloha!

      No problem teach! It’s a wise man who chooses to be as accurate as he can be. Your content is interesting and I hope you continue to make and release content like this, but could we also get some lessons about some of our local stellar neighbors, maybe a lecture series on it?? Lots of content there you can make and teach us dumb monkeys at the same time! Win win! 😊

    That was very well-explained, with excellent visual aids. Great cliffhanger ending too :)

    So humans first noticed Betelguese as a bright yellow star which then turned red. So it went from a main sequence star to a red giant. Now people are afraid it will go supernova when in reality it just recently turned off it's cno burning. While it could blow up any day it is less likely now that it went from cno cycle to now red giant which means it is close to being hot enough to form even higher elements so yes it could.

    Would that you could have been my professor.
