Stars

The pinpoints of light that you see in the night sky are stars. Your ability to see the stars depends on how bright they are (their “absolute magnitude”), as well as how close they are to Earth. Stars are giant balls of gas in space that shine through the darkness. The Sun  is an average star that Earth orbits.
