Birth and Death of a Star, The

• 1974 ----- color ----- 29 min ----- 16mm
• Prominent astronomers are interviewed as they present lucid explanations of the phases in the formation, development and death of stars: from gaseous dark clouds to young blue giants; from a stable, middle-aged star, like our sun, to the horrendous, all-engulfing flames of the red giant stage; from the flashing pulsar of the neutron star to the white dwarf star and finally to the incredibly dense black holes.
• Topics: (Astronomy)
