Quark star

Okay kiddo, imagine you have a bunch of tiny balls called "quarks" which are the building blocks of matter. When lots and lots of quarks stick together and form a group, they create something called a "neutron star".

Now, if even more quarks squeeze together very tightly, a special type of star called a "quark star" is formed. This happens when the gravitational force is so strong that it pushes the quarks extremely close and squeezes them so much that they can't escape - they become trapped and can't move anymore.

A quark star is made entirely of quarks tightly squeezed together and it's so dense and heavy that it weighs much more than our Sun. Think about it like squeezing a giant balloon until it becomes a tiny hard ball - that's kind of what happens to the quarks inside a quark star.

Scientists are still studying and learning more about quark stars and how they behave, but they're a fascinating and important part of our universe!
