Helix Nebula - Unraveling at the Seams. A dying star is throwing a cosmic tantrum in this combined image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), which NASA has lent to the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. In death, the star's dusty outer layers are unraveling into space, glowing from the intense ultraviolet radiation being pumped out by the hot stellar core. This object, called the Helix nebula, lies 650 light-years away, in the constellation

This illustration, superimposed on an EIT 304 angstrom image of the Sun taken by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), shows the innermost solar core, site of nuclear fusion, surrounded by the radiative zone, through which the heat and light from the core slowly, over tens of thousands of years are radiated out, to a third layer, the convection zone, about the upper third of the Sun in which the energy is transported by overturning motions, like the bubbling of a pot of boiling water, u

Conceptual image representing the process of nuclear fusion, specifically the creation of helium from hydrogen. Four protons hydrogen nuclei are combining on the left, releasing in the process two protons and two neutrons a helium nucleus. The sum of the masses of the neutron and protons is less than that of the original four protons. The ´missing mass´ is converted to energy, which we see in the form of electromagnetic radiation. This is the power behind the Sun´s brilliant glow. In practice, t
