stars

Stars are heavenly bodies that... well... to stay on topic, a better description here could be quoted straight from Wikipedia: "A star is a massive, luminous sphere of plasma held together by gravity." These types of stars have planets that orbit them that can be heated by their star in order to sustain life, such as the relationship between our earth and the sun.

While some Hollywood "stars" could also be described as heavenly bodies, many more are known for their talent and acting expertise. A star is simply another term used to describe a celebrity. And there are actually more stars than just those in Hollywood. Other stars include famous singers, writers, performers, or even well-known "heroes" that serve our country, for example. It all comes down to your own perspective.

One of the most wondrous activities discovered by man is that of astronomy, or simply star gazing at night through a telescope.

Bloggers speaking about stars can be found at sites like Astronomy Blog and Perez Hilton.
