When we observe the sky at night, we see many twinkling objects. It is a star. Star is a huge ball of very hot gases. They give off their own heat and light so, they are also called luminous objects. There are uncountable stars in the sky. The sun is one of them. It is the nearest star to the earth. It is about 150 million kilometers away from the earth. It is a medium-sized star that is yellow in color. We cannot see the star on the day. Some stars are much bigger than the sun but they appear smaller because stars are a million kilometers away from the earth. Countless more stars are too far from earth to be seen without a telescope. Stars have different colors, it may be red, green, orange, yellow, white, and blue.
