Australia's latitude is south and its longitude is east. This is because Australia is located below the equator in the southern hemisphere and to the east of the Prime Meridia â¦ n in the eastern hemisphere.
A star is born when atoms of light elements are squeezed under enough pressure for their nuclei to undergo fusion. All stars are the result of a balance of forces: the force of gravity compresses atoms in interstellar gas until the fusion reactions begin.
Next image. The Ring Nebula (M 57) is a planetary nebula about 2300 light years away from us. This is how it looks when a star blows its outer layers at the end of the life. If the star is not big enough to explode in a supernova, it will eject some of its mass as in the case of M 57, the Ring Nebula. The star in the centre of the nebula can still be seen, but it is passing through the last stage of its stellar evolution and is soon to become a white dwarf.
