Forces Within A Star - Fe [26] Game
Resource:
Forces Within A Star - Fe [26] Game
Students will collect data using a game/simulation to better understand how nuclear fusion results in the release of energy and the formation of new elements, as well as why the lifespan of a high-mass star is much shorter than the lifespan of a low-mass star.
