Elements in the Stars

In this project, I researched several celestial bodies throughout the universe. For each body, I found out its chemical composition, location, stellar classification, and the emission spectrum of its most abundant chemical. This project relates to chemistry because celestial bodies are composed of several chemicals that react with one another. In addition, they emit different kinds of elements throughout their lifetime. I hope you enjoy my findings and learn something new!
