. Why do the stars look so small?
Answers
Answer:
Stars are so distant that they appear as pinpoints of light in the night sky, even when viewed through a telescope. Because all the light is coming from a single point, its path is highly susceptible to atmospheric interference (i.e. their light is easily diffracted). the sun is a star — the closest star to Earth. But the stars are very, very far away from our solar system so they appear to be very tiny to us, even though up close they are large. .
Answer:
Stars make their own light, just like our sun (the sun is a star — the closest star to Earth). But the stars are very, very far away from our solar system so they appear to be very tiny to us, even though up close they are large. ... They reflect the light of the sun in the same way our moon reflects sunlight.
