Stars are scientifically defined "as self-gravitating spheres of plasma in hydrostatic equilibrium, which generate their own energy through the process of nuclear fusion." A star emits light because of its intense heat, unlike planets and moons that reflect light. From Earth all stars except the Sun appear to twinkle because of the atmosphere. The Sun, at the center of the Solar System, is classed as a drawf star and appears as a flat disk to Earthlings. It providies both heat and light. Stars typically group in galaxies: the Earth, Solar System and Sun are part of the Milky Way Galaxy. Humans have created mythologies involving the stars and used the stars to navigate the Earth surface.

Images include Stonehenge, charts of the Heavens, Celestial Maps and Constellations of the Zodiac.
