@LoungeFly02 Knowing this, sometimes those lines move toward one end of the spectrum. If it moves towards the blue side, it's "Blue Shifted" or moving closer to us. If it moves towards the red side, it's "Red Shifted" or moving away from us. Scientists can tell when stars are gravitationally bound to other stars by using this method. That's how we know that most galaxies are moving away from us. That's how we know that Andromeda Galaxy is hurdling towards us.

@LoungeFly02 The Doppler effect has nothing to do with a star's visible color. It is determined when the star's light (or any celestial object) is split into a prism showing its spectrum. The rainbow of colors will have dark lines appear on the spectrum. These dark lines represent what elements the object is made from. So Hydrogen will always look the same, Helium too, etc.

@Glennfalconi A few things determine a star's color including age and temperature. The cooler the star, the redder it is; conversely the hotter the bluer. Also, the older a star is, the more yellowish/reddish it becomes and the younger, the bluer. Rigel is a young star, maybe 8 millions years old (Our sun is nearly 5 billion years old) and burns nearly 10,000 degrees hotter than our sun. All these together would make this a blue giant star.

hahaha,, my name is also Rigel..
I used to think no one is named Rigel besides me ..
I think we should create a club where only people who called Rigel that can enter ..
hahaha..

space is so amazing

@OnBrokenDreams Space is wierd dude.

@Glennfalconi google the doppler effect, red shif and blue shift. planets moving away from us are red towards us are blue something to do with the frequency of ligh waves. Science! Very confusing. Think the composition of suns affects hiw it burns and therefore the color which is how we tell how they are made up.

@RiigelSouza i was curious to see a person with the same name as me and went to your channel and saw a video of you speaking brazilian

Isn't pistol star the brightest? And does brighter light travel faster? And why is the colour diffrent?
Glennfalconi 1 year ago 3
@Glennfalconi brighter light do not travel faster, as it is light, it always travel the same speed. and the color is different because there is just a difference in the composition of a star like our sun, thats all. there might be some other reasons too. just look on google
