Blue Giants 400 Million Light Years Away from Sol -Look blue due to high luminosity -Life Expectancy is short due to heat and density -Most end their lives as a Supernova

White Dwarf in center of Ring Nebula “Eye of God” White Dwarf in center of Ring Nebula White Dwarf Contains: Mass of the Sun Size of the Earth

Black Hole? Gravity is so strong that no matter that enters can ever escape.

Our Galaxy…The Milky Way Named for the “milky” band of hazy white light appearing across the sphere that is visible from Earth
