Stars die in big ways. When a star runs out of fuel, it can explode like a giant firework or shrink down to a tiny dot called a white dwarf. The energy from the explosion becomes new stars and planets, just like when you light fireworks at night!
Examples
- A firework exploding is like a star dying and sending out bright colors into the sky.
- When you blow out a candle, it’s like a small star dying after burning all its fuel.
- A cat shrinking down to a tiny dot is like a star turning into a white dwarf.
