Stars come in all shapes and sizes, and some are true speed demons! These are called rapidly rotating stars, and they can spin at mind-boggling velocities – thousands of times faster than our Sun!
Imagine a giant ball of burning gas spinning so fast it bulges at the equator. That's what these stars look like! This rapid rotation affects their entire lifecycle, influencing everything from their brightness to their lifespan.
The sheer speed of these stars pushes the boundaries of what we thought was physically possible. What other extreme phenomena in the universe do you find mind-blowing? Do you think there could be undiscovered types of stars with even more incredible properties?
