The average brightness of a star throughout its life multiplied by the average energy the star gives us will be equal to ____________. This number would be the key that would teach us what are the sources of the mass of the star that it burns throughout its life. Birth, rebirth and death of stars would also teach us the sources of the mass of the star. But how would the supernovae help us? In the supernovae, the energy that is released carries the minerals which were present in the previous stars. So this way there could be millions of categories of these stars which are creating new categories every millennium. It may be one of these stars that would make life on other worlds possible. Stars like our sun is the category that we must hunt in for sources of minerals that would be the key to creating life. That would indicate the regions of the cosmos we must hunt for if we were to find life.
How I got to this conclusion?
Studying our sun, understanding the conditions around earth (the sun’s goldi-locks zone) is crucial. The temperature is perfect. The alignment of planets just right to keep comets and asteroids away. The planets around perfect for earth’s orbit to remain stable. All of this can be used as filters for whatever it could have life.
