Can a planet turn to a star?

Stellification is a theoretical process by which a brown dwarf star or Jovian-class planet is turned into a star, or by which the luminosity of dim stars is greatly magnified.

Do stars have own light?

Stars make their own light, just like our sun (the sun is a star — the closest star to Earth). But the stars are very, very far away from our solar system so they appear to be very tiny to us, even though up close they are large. They reflect the light of the sun in the same way our moon reflects sunlight.

Can a planet be turned into a star?

Planets can be really turned into stars if their mass is high enough to start a nuclear fusion….. if we took all mass of earth and squeezed it into 9mm radius ball it would become a black hole…… but that s another topic….. If it is a gas giant about 80 times as massive as Jupiter it could become a small star if fusion gets started.

Why do all of the Stars in the sky have planets?

Almost every star, barring some “rogue” stars, have one or more planets around them. Due to the physical processes involved in the formation of a star, it is quite natural to have left-over gases and dust to cluster around the star in various patterns, coalescing slowly to become different planets.

Can a planet turn into a black hole?

Planets can be really turned into stars if their mass is high enough to start a nuclear fusion….. most most of the gas giants revolve around stars in a very close orbit due to this reason (refer kepler space telescope’s planets) So yes planets can become stars and stars can become black holes if we took all mass…

Can a brown dwarf star turn into a planet?

The answer to that question is… yes! A star can turn into a planet, but this is true only for a specific category of stars called brown dwarfs. What are brown dwarfs?
