The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.
This site first introduces stellar evolution by exploring hydrostatic balance, radiation pressure, and gravity. The next three sections discuss mass criteria, lifetime, and evolution on the H-R diagram of red dwarfs, mid mass stars, and high mass stars.
