Answer:

It is essential to know the key differences between Stars and Planets as they are both celestial bodies located in outer space. It is important to understand the clear distinctions between a star and a planet, a star is a body that possesses a light which causes it to reflect the light on its own. A planet, on the other hand, is simply a celestial body that is fixed and has its own orbit and spins on its own axis, yet reflects the light from an external source. As planets do not have an internal source of light, they only receive light from external sources primarily the Sun. Minkowski space is usually used to calculate for special relativity problems, to obtain solutions.

Difference between Stars and Planets

One of the major key points that differentiate stars from planets is size. Even though in images planets may look gigantic and stars may look distant and small, whereas, in reality, stars are gigantic when compared to planets. For a full comparison between planets and stars, check out the table below.

Difference between Stars and Planets

Stars Planets

Stars are incredibly hot having high temperatures to them. Planets, on the other hand, have relatively low temperatures.

They are objects that produce their own light and do not rely on an external source for the production of light Planets are incapable of producing their own light.

Stars have a unique effect of twinkling in the sky. Planets do not exhibit the twinkling effect unlike stars

The stars change their position, but can be seen only after a long time due to substantial distance. Planets in orbits on their own axis change their positions constantly.

Stars consist of matters like Hydrogen, Helium, and other light elements. Planets, on the other hand, contains solids, liquids, gases, or a combination thereon.

heya, buddy !!

➲ A star is a celestial body having its own light and energy.

➥A star is a huge glittering ball of hot gas, mainly consisting of Hydrogen and Helium.

➥Stars are giant, luminous spheres of plasma collapsed together by gravity.

➥Stars are responsible for the manufacture of heavy elements like Carbon, Nitrogen, and Oxygen.

➥Star formation shapes the visual aspect of the universe and provides the sites for planets. Especially in astronomy.

➲ A planet is a celestial body that orbits around the Sun, has adequate mass for it’s self-gravity to get on top of rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium to make it round, they are smaller than stars.

know more,

STAR:-

➥THEY HAVE THEIR OWN LIGHT.

➥THEY ARE VERY VERY HOT.

➥THEY ARE VERY BIG IN SIZE.

➥THEY PROVIDE LIGHT TO PLANETS.

➥THEY ARE VERY VERY FAR FROM US.

PLANETS:-

➥THEY DON'T HAVE THEIR OWN LIGHT AND THEY GET LIGHT FROM STARS AND THE SUN.

➥THEY ARE SMALL IN SIZE.

➥THEY ARE NOT SO HOT.

➥THEY DO NOT PROVIDE LIGHT TO OTHERS.

➥THEY CAN BE SEEN WITH THE HELP OF POWERFUL TELESCOPES
