A. Nebula - a cloud of gas and dust in outer space.

B. Protostar - a contracting mass of gas which represents an early stage in the formation of a star.

C. Red Giant - a very large star of high luminosity and low surface temperature.

D. White Dwarf - a small very dense star that is typically the size of a planet.

E. Red Super Giant - an extremely large red giant star with a minimum of 15 solar masses.

F. Supernova - a powerful and luminous stellar explosion.

G. Neutron Star - the collapsed core of a massive supergiant star.

H. Black Hole - a region of a selective where gravity is so strong that noting-no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from it.


Hope this helps, and have a blessed one! :)
