As the air in the earth's atmosphere swirls around over our heads, the light passing through it from space to earth is continually bent in different directions. This causes a rippling effect, like when you observe something underwater, or look down a hot road in the summer. To our eyes, the stars appear to twinkle.
当大气中的空气在我们上方旋动,光线穿过大气层,从太空照射到地球,并且往不同方向折射,这样便形成了涟漪般的效应,这就好像你看着水底下的东西,或是在夏天里望着炙热的马路,道理是一样的。所以,在我们眼中,星星在闪烁。
Just like people, stars also have lifespan. A star keeps the same color and shape for most of its life. But when it gets very old, it swells into what is called a red giant. After reaching this stage, some stars begin to cool down and grow dim. Other stars explode into spectacular supernovas.
就像人类一样,星星也有平均寿命。星星的一生大多数会维持相同的颜色与形状,但是当时间一久,就会膨胀变成红色的巨星,这时,有些星星的温度会开始下降,光度也随之下降。有些星星会爆炸,形成壮观的超新星。
