ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

PG 1159 star

Hey there kiddo! Alright, let's talk about stars, specifically the one on page 1159.

A star is like a gigantic ball of fire that shines in the sky at night. They are very far away from us, but still light up the night sky.

Now, the star on page 1159 is probably a picture or illustration of one specific star. Each star is unique, just like each person is unique.

Some stars are bigger and brighter than others, and they all have different colors. They also live for different amounts of time. Some can live for millions and millions of years, while others only live for a few thousand.

Just like we have different types of fruits, stars come in different types too. Some stars are called red giants, while others are called white dwarfs. Scientists study stars to learn more about them and the universe they live in.

So there you have it! The star on page 1159 is just one of many stars in the sky, but it's still special in its own way.
