So you know what a star is, right? Well, if you dont, you should. Weve talked about that big one in the sky a few times: The Sun! But there are a lot of bright dots in the night sky and not all of them are stars. Today, lets play a game of "Star or Not a Star" to learn a little more about everything thats up there.
This first series is based on 5th-grade science. Were super excited and hope you enjoy Crash Course Kids!
