DATA_VERIFIED
Stars are born inside vast clouds of gas and dust called nebulae. These clouds are extremely cold and diffuse, but small disturbances—like shockwaves from nearby supernovae—can cause regions to collapse.
As gravity pulls material inward, a dense core forms. This object, called a protostar, heats up as it shrinks, but it does not yet produce energy through fusion. Instead, it glows from gravitational energy alone.
Once the core temperature reaches about 10 million degrees Celsius, hydrogen fusion ignites. At that moment, a star is truly born, entering a long and stable phase of its life.
