Stardust
Features several astronomers investigating all three stages and the mysteries that surround the life cycle of stars. Howard University's Benjamin Peery strives to impart the thrill of scientific discovery to a new generation of astronomers. Leo Blitz, professor of astronomy at the University of Maryland, investigates the birth process of stars. Cornell University's, Nobel Prize winning physicist, Hans Bethe explains his 1938 theory whereby stars derive their power from the transformation of matter into energy. And in Australia, Mike Dopita, Richard Manchester, and David Allen study the aftermath of a 1987 supernova, the closest to Earth to occur in four centuries, for information about the death of stars.
