crisscrossing Science Episode 005: The Life and Death of Stars

In this episode, Chris Gaiser (professor of biology at Linfield College) and Mike Crosser (professor of physics at Linfield College) discuss the life cycle of stars. The exact way that a star dies depends on how much mass it has. Gaiser and Crosser discuss stars from the tiny brown dwarfs up through the massive stars that result in black holes.
