Star Life Cycle
For our project my group (Elliot and Mateo) decided to make a slide show and models of the star life cycle. We made our models from the website tinkercad. Below is the presentation we made to complete this project.
Evidence of work
Content
Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles. The difference in mass between the reactants and products is manifested as either the release or absorption of energy.
Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into 2 smaller, lighter nuclei
Radioactive decay is the spontaneous breakdown of an atomic nucleus resulting in the release of energy and matter from the nucleus. Remember that a radioisotope has unstable nuclei that does not have enough binding energy to hold the nucleus together.
Solar Mass the mass of the sun used as a unit of mass, equal to 1.989 × 1030 kg.

Reflection
This project was fun because I got to get to know my partners and got to know a lot more about space. As for our model, it required work and creativity because the program had certain limitations with what we could create. Compared to models we could have done though, we did not choose the most difficult way to show our topic of stellar evolution.
We use Tinkercad to create our models. We finished up pretty quickly compared to other groups because it wasn't that difficult to create the models.
Something I did not do so well on was research. I feel like we could have put more time into researching our topic more thoroughly instead of relying on mostly surface information. Another thing I could improve on was work ethic. I found myself getting distracted with talking with other groups instead of working a lot.
