There are two types of stories we tell of the stars, old and new. The old stories cover the mythology of the sky as told by the Greeks, Romans, Babylonians, and other early cultures. They grouped the stars into a variety of patterns called constellations, naming them after heroes, monsters and other characters from their myths and legends. The new stories of the stars are still being put together by astronomers as they discover the true nature of these most distant objects. In this show more emphasis is given to basic science of stellar evolution for Sun-like stars; including star forming regions, their stellar life cycle (including planetary nebula and white dwarf stars) and basics of the Milky Way and galaxies. With less mythology and more basic science this show is more appropriate for grades 4 through 12 than the grades 1 through 3 version.
