How Stars Turn MATTER into ENERGY | Nuclear Fusion?

Stars are giant balls of matter that turn into energy by smashing together like tiny building blocks.

Imagine you have a bunch of tiny marbles, these are like the atoms inside a star. When stars get really hot, those marbles start moving super fast and smash into each other. This is called nuclear fusion.

When two marbles (like hydrogen atoms) crash together, they stick together and become a bigger marble (a helium atom). When they stick, they let out a lot of energy, like when you hit a pinata, it goes BOOM! and stuff flies everywhere. This energy is what makes the star shine.

In real life, this happens millions of times every second in our Sun. It’s like having a never-ending smash party inside the Sun that lights up our world!
