This is an exploration of how stars are formed, what they are doing and how they eventually end up. We begin by considering our nearest star, our Sun, and then identify what we mean by massive stars. Along the way we find out why we are made of star stuff and how this all began!
The talk is always adapted to the audience, so it suits anyone who is curious about the life of stars.
