Episode Description
This week on The Conduct Science Podcast, Tom and Mitch take a look at the stars! Join them as they discuss exactly what it is that makes a star what it is! The life cycles of stellar entities and how they come into being from giant gas clouds and nebulas in the exapanse of space and how humans might one day end up exploiting stars for their own use. Black hole or supernova explosion, why, what, when, where, and how! Music by: Joakim Karud – https://soundcloud.com/joakimkarud.
