Deaths of Stars
•Supernova – explosion of supergiant•Explosion creates heavy elements, lead, gold•Explosion creates new stars with material from old star (recycling!) •Neutron star – remains of supergiant•Smaller, denser than white dwarfs•Pulsar – spinning neutron star•Gives off pulses of radiation in the form of radio waves•Black hole – gravity so strong nothing can escape•Cannot be detected directly

Black Holes
The remains of the most massive stars collapse into black holes. Here, a black hole is shown pulling matter from a companion star.
Gas near a black hole pulled inward, x-rays observed, gravitational effect on nearby stars

Astronomers classify most galaxies into three main categories: spiral, elliptical, and irregular.

Types of Galaxies
•Spiral – bulge in middle, arms spiral outward•Spiral arms contain new stars, gas, dust•New stars formed in spiral arms•Elliptical – round or oval shape, billions of stars, little gas or dust, therefore old stars•Irregular – smaller than other galaxies•Young stars, lots of gas and dust•Located close to larger galaxies.

Structure of the Milky Way
Our solar system is located in a spiral galaxy called the Milky Way. From the side, the Milky Way appears to be a narrow disk with a bulge in the middle. The galaxy’s spiral structure is visible only from above or below.
Center is 25,000 light years away from Earth

Scientific NotationThe bright star Deneb is about 3,230 light-years from Earth. To express this number in scientific notation, first insert a decimal point in the original number so that you have a number between one and ten. In this case, the numberis 3.23.
To determine the power of 10, count the number of places that the decimal point moved. Here the decimal point moved three places.
3,230 light-years = 3.23 x 103 light-years.
