    919 views - should be so much more. What an absolutely wonderful video. It takes a complex concept and breaks it down it an understandable way, but even more importantly doesn't make it TOO simple. Shows on Discovery channel or whatever use buzz words and turn it into an action movie where they don't really explain anything. This is the best middle ground between simple and advanced I've ever seen. Great work. I hope you will make many more videos

      Thank you for taking the time to make this comment! Definitely appreciated. That balance was exactly what I was striving for in this video, I hope to get some time to make some more conceptual science deep dives sometime soon.

    This is a great video. It's always difficult to find the middle ground between "explain to me like in 5" and "I already have a master's in the subject". Happy medium. Good job.

      Thanks! That's what was I trying hard to aim for, so thanks for taking the time to make that comment!

    by far the best vid on the subject - it's a shame to see clickbait surpassing this

      Thank you!! I definitely appreciate that comment. Few things beat a concept focused deep dive, I probably won't be able to keep up with AI generated click bait garbage, but I do want to do some more topics.

    Very well explained...I always wondered why the Sun didn’t burn out faster...now I know! Thank you.

    Thanks for mentioning who, when and most of all, HOW they discovered and created the theory of Stellar / Helionucleosynthesis, you mean Bethe a German? Was he familiar with nuclear reactions, which year was that?? I’ll listen again. Very comprehensive video, ooh there’s a carbon-nitrogen-oxygen reaction furthermore? It’s not just the helium3 and 4 and thank you, into the stellar wind??

    Oh, *Eddington* was the boss, we have the *Eddington Luminosity* of stars (aka Eddington limit), the maximum luminosity a body (such as a star) can achieve when there is balance between the force of radiation acting outward and the gravitational force acting inward. I wrote a book about this, so I should know.

    Isn’t the fuel hydrogen inside of the core of the star? And gravity, heat & pressure??

      young starts or stars that formed early in the history of the universe were all hydrogen and some helium, after fusion starts the new elements formed sink to the core.

      very soon, been working on it every day. My instagram has more frequent updates though instagram.com/matus_1976/ while waiting on video editing.
