Dive into the fascinating world of the Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) diagram, which illustrates the relationship between the luminosity, temperature, and types of stars. Explore examples like red supergiants and white dwarfs. A local star map reveals thousands of galaxies, with fascinating statistics such as 15 arcseconds wide visibility. Learn how stars like tennis balls at 100 yards can relate to our cosmic perspective, and how naming a star for someone you love can connect you with the universe.
