*Event Type*: [[PublicLectures][Lecture and Stargazing]]<br>
*Title*: Why Stars Shine<br>
*Lecturer*: Robyn Sanderson<br>
*Position*: NSF Postdoctoral Fellow<br>
*Institution*: Caltech<br>
*Abstract*: Have you ever wondered how the Sun makes all that light? Or why that light is yellowish-white, while other stars in the night sky can look blue or red? Does the thought of our Sun exploding keep you up at night?
Find out the answers to your burning questions about our Sun and other stars: how they're born, how they produce light, how they differ from one another in color, size, brightness, and age, and what happens when they 'die.' Your view of the night sky will never be the same.<br>
