Tyke Explorers: Life of Stars
Copernicus Room
Stellar
Science –
Have you ever wondered what stars are made of, how they form, or what
happens
when they die? Join us this February as we take a look at the billions
of stars
in our Milky Way Galaxy!
Day 1: February 5 – Twinkle, Twinkle
Twinkle,
twinkle little star.
How I wonder what you are? I wonder do stars really twinkle? Do they
make
pictures in the sky?
Day 2: February 12 – Life of a Star
Follow
a star from its birth in
a nebula all the way through its middle and old ages. Along the way,
you’ll
learn about stars of different sizes and colors, supernova, and black
holes!
Day 3: February 19 – One Sun, One light
One sun lighting everyone. Let’s take a closer look (not directly) at that big ball of fire in thh sky and also visit our new exhibit “Touch the Sun”.
