The reason why stars are so important is because they have helped humans navigate through Earth . When it was dark these stars would light up the sky giving people light . ... the most important is the Sun, because without that it wouldn't be life on Earth . Earth would just be a rock with ice.

What do stars give us?
The spectrum of a star can tell us the temperature, size, and composition of the star. It can also tell us how fast it is moving. If there are two stars in orbit around each other, a series of measurements can be used to get their masses (weights).
What do stars do?
Stars are huge celestial bodies made mostly of hydrogen and helium that produce light and heat from the churning nuclear forges inside their cores. Aside from our sun, the dots of light we see in the sky are all light-years from Earth.
How are stars and constellations useful to us?
Constellations are useful because they can help people to recognize stars in the sky. By looking for patterns, the stars and locations can be much easier to spot. The constellations had uses in ancient times. They were used to help keep track of the calendar.
What would happen without stars?
If there were no stars, all humans would be exposed to cosmic radiation that falls from the atmosphere due to -100 degree temperatures. Without the sun there would be no photosynthesis, causing all plants, animals, and humans to die.
Why do stars twinkle?
As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.
Why are there so many stars?
Why are there so many stars in the sky and what are their purpose of being there? ... Stars form out of giant clouds of dust and gas in galaxies. Since so many formed we can assume that it's quite easy for them to do that, or that the galaxy has been around a very long time.
Why are stars called stars?
Stars are named for the constellation that they lie in with the brightest star in a constellation being alpha and so on throught the greek alphabet. ... Once they run out of Greek letters in a constellation, astronomers also use numbers (eg. 51 Pegasi - a famous star because of the planets around it).
What happens in a star?
Stars are mainly made of hydrogen and helium gas. In the centre of a star, the temperature and pressure are so high that four protons can fuse to form helium, in a series of steps. This process releases huge amounts of energy and makes the stars shine brightly. As stars age, what happens inside them changes.
What is star life cycle?
A star's life cycle is determined by its mass. The larger its mass, the shorter its life cycle. A star's mass is determined by the amount of matter that is available in its nebula, the giant cloud of gas and dust from which it was born.
What is the importance of stars in determining the right time to farm?
The stars allowed farmers to plan ahead and form agriculture, and constellations made it easier to recognize and interpret the patterns in the sky. The constellations also helped with navigation.
Do constellations have a purpose?
The real purpose for the constellations is to help us tell which stars are which, nothing more. On a really dark night, you can see about 1000 to 1500 stars. Trying to tell which is which is hard. The constellations help by breaking up the sky into more managable bits.
Is there space without stars?
There's a region of space so large and empty, a billion light-years across, that there's nothing in it at all. There's no matter of any type, normal or dark, and no stars, galaxies, plasma, gas, dust, black holes, or anything else. There's no radiation in there at all, either.
What would happen if all the stars died?
Gravity will have won, a victory delayed by the ability of stars to call on the resources of nuclear fusion. But ultimately, gravity will reduce all stars to a super-dense state as black holes, neutron stars or cold white dwarfs.
What will happen to the stars if there is no sun?
The speed of gravity
If that were true, then the first thing that would happen when the sun disappeared is that Earth, along with all the other planets, would go flying off into space. ... Therefore, we would still see the sun in our sky eight minutes after it was gone.
