The Magic School Bus: Sees Stars

I'm done tim stop rushing me keisha how long can it take to make a model of the sun that sounds wait until the sun shines nelly when you wind it up do you think dad will like it she will love it it's the perfect gift for her birthday too bad that she is sick and had to stay home today. hello, how come you are still in

school

? ok we'll be there soon bye where's miss frizzle anyway i will its too late to make another one here right now you can get the perfect gifts from ssn the star shopping network hey look this is one of those shows where you can call and buy things and here is your host the stellar salesman boris himself for the night Friends, I'm Horace Cope and I bring you the perfect gift for someone you love. three

stars

left one, two and three for the ridiculously low price of only seven bucks each, that's it, we'll all chip in a dollar and get d.a. his own star. great idea. from the home mop network and it didn't mop so I'm not spending my money on anything I haven't verified myself but keisha keisha the time is right we don't have to buy a star view without seeing we don't do it to the la bus, but what about dad's party?

Let's go shopping to the

stars

. Could we go to the mall? Computer report. All systems please, miss frizzle. We are leaving the earth behind and here comes the moon. what we just went from planet earth to the moon in less than a minute like my andromeda always says rafi to get to the stars you have to go way past mars wow look at all those tiny stars i wonder if they will get bigger when we come closer like the moon got better? We need some way to tell them apart now you are probably asking well how can you sell me a star if they all look so bad thats the beauty of it look closely and you will see many different types of stars for example look at this little baby only two million years old believe it or not it's too young for a star to see just look in the direction of the constellation taurus the bull i wouldn't mislead you ooh please who ever heard of a baby star to see it by itself, it would have to fly at a speed of 500 million miles per hour and it would still take about 80 years to get there, so isn't that much easier?

I called told my mom I'd be home at seven so what are we waiting for hmm baby star here we go is it just me or are we just leaving our solar system behind man we've already gone so far we can't we can see any of the planets already and now our sun looks as small as a star hey miss frizzle is our sun a star like all the other stars here? Yeah, it makes you think, doesn't it? taurus here we go we should be seeing the baby star coming out of the hyperdrive now that baby star should be around here somewhere but it's hard to tell with all this dust and gas dust and gas is what these quarter stellar word clouds are made of kids all straight dust yeah swirling clouds this is not a good place for a baby on the contrary phoebe is the best place for a star baby oh wow this new telescope is so cool you can see practically forever take a look liz you can even see huge clouds of dust and gas up there geez i wonder how they look up close that can't be our baby star it doesn't look like what we saw on tv you're right keisha it's a ball of gas but not a star what's going on we're being sucked in towards the center warning warning due to a large ball of hot gas we are out of control at my old

school

we were never dragged to the center boiling with a swirling cloud of dust and gas i know phoebe is not so fantastic that no one has ever seen what We're seeing.

Luck. Nobody. What are we going to do? What are we going to do? What are we going to do? You're safe alright tim look there's a baby star it's been behind us the whole time oh stop it's too bright to look at miss frizzle no problem class for baby star it sure is huge, well baby stars come in all sizes, let's see how huge it is. seriously we should hmm it's actually small it's only about half the size of our sun so it's just a baby I say let's call Horus and buy it wait a second this is not a happy star poor thing looks like it's got gas alright phoebe all stars have gas that's what they're made of but this two million year old baby hasn't settled down yet you know it's at that awkward age come on keisha let's go buy it and go to the party no way i'm not going to spend a penny on this star it's too young and too wild kisha what kind of star are you looking for anyway well something a little bigger and brighter with no dust around it and it would be nice if it had a planet or two we need one star we can trust as our own sun ok then you don't like the baby star problem remember there are still two stars left and the next one is sensational a brilliant example of a middle aged adult star and to find it . look right here in the Big Dipper seats everyone and buckle up computer how far away is it about 100 million miles wow that's not all this next star even comes with its own planets absolutely free there's keisha just the kind of star What you're looking for looks good, but I want to make sure it's different from the baby star. calmer thats because this star has grown keisha a happy and healthy five billion years in the prime of its life theres no dust clouds around it either and look it has its own planets i can see at least two wow this star looks like our sun come on buy it miss frizzle so i sold it but i haven't dialed it yet i guess someone beat us to it but who would want to buy our star young lady and enjoy their new star what do you want to call it janet?

I've always wanted my name in life but this is even better I can't wait to tell my cousin arnold how embarrassing come on guys we can't give up there's still one more star left and remember there's still one star left how can you look for this accurate rendering of the artist i have saved the best for last a red supergiant star look here here here here here here in the constellation of andromeda so if you're in the neighborhood check it out or just give it a call it's a lot faster i wanna bet de I agree with my research that the little star out there is actually a red supergiant a hundred times bigger than our sun because we're so far away it looks like a tiny point of light, but if we were closer it would look very, very huge stupendous astronomical a 20 million year old red supergiant this is her beauty i tell you what folks since this is my last star i'll take 50 cents off the price if anyone buys her in the next 50 seconds sounds like a good deal to me we better call before anyone more i bought it star shopping network horoscope speaking hi i'm tim and i mean us that's the kind of miss frizzle would you like to wait a second well keisha well well it's certainly the biggest star by far and i like the color it doesn't have planets but no dust clouds either and its not a wild baby so ok we want to buy the red supergiant star and name it after Dorothy so they bought themselves a star and not a mommy too. soon we did it we got the biggest and brightest birthday present ever daddy will love to have a star that's so much bigger than the other stars wait a minute if it's so much bigger how come we got it so cheap yeah horse 15 in a rush to sell it, do you guys think there is something wrong with it?

I don't see anything wrong, since my old librarian friend always says you can't tell a book by its cover, let's take a peek inside with our pikatron slipper. I can actually see the inside of the star is it just me or is the inside of our star shrinking not shrinking ralphie collapsing oh no the inside of the stars is getting tight does it matter what's going on inside it was shining real good in the outer and that's all dlc core bang three two one star is gone our big beautiful star just exploded to pieces i can't believe what i just saw i know it wasn't super super miss frizzle d one star is gone it's history 6 50 nothing but why did our star explode when it did it looked good on the outside it was bigger it was brighter well horace said the supergiant was 20 million years old stargazing phoebe stars get old and eventually fade but some like this come out with an explosion they're called supernovae, well it sure left the super mess, you know it looks a lot like the place where we found the baby star.

All these remnants of the explosion are clouds of dust and gas. Let's get out of here last time we got too close. a cloud of hot gas almost fried us but tim tim can't you see that that ball of hot gas was a star getting ready to be born that's right stars are made of hot gases boingo phoebe hot gases squeezed together into a ball yes squeeze together hot enough to make a new baby star shine the hot gas keeps the stars glowing as fuel for the fire for millions and millions of years and when the fuel finally runs out, the stars die out and those that go out in an explosion like this leave behind the stars. stuff to make new stars again excuse me but in case you forgot we don't have a die for gift yet no but maybe we can make one huh the way i see it all we have to do is help with what happens. naturally, what happens if we collect all the leftover gas and dust and squeeze it together until it gets hot enough to glow? brilliant idea keisha normally it would take a million years to clean all this up but since we have a

magic

bus it's time to take it most likely sweep up the mess and make a star it's working dust and gas are mixing and now when you need a good squeeze just say please can you squeeze a multitude of stardust into a star into a star?

Can you squeeze a start like a cloud to our d.a oh we can squeeze it until it's sore and it's hot. congratulations class computer set coordinates ktu r5 we are going home please look there is a star up there it was not there before i am sure i have to write about it in my star journal sorry we're late you're just in time you see that really bright star up there ok it's a new star and i just discovered it actually that's your birthday present from everyone we. dorothy and one in your honor you did happy birthday but how i dont understand oh its a long story dorothean a story full of dust and gas with heat and this is a special link from ssn i just discovered a new star and now its for sale so it's, a new star so let's hear how the phones ring with the old and it ends with the news new star that's right and you know where this new beginning came from because we sure did kid we actually saw how the dust and the gas came together to become a new star and that's not all, we saw a baby star and then a middle-aged one. star that had been shining for a long time as our son and then thanks to you we saw the star you sold us explode and you knew it was fading well maybe I did but but what you didn't know was if you squeezed out all the dust and the gas left over from the explosion and heat it up enough to make a new star.

The star he's trying to sell us now, only that's our star because he made up the scraps of the one he sold us. and they gave it to me for my birthday and they named it dorothy and after me so you can sell it yeah yeah thanks for pointing out my mistake well done class couldn't have said it better myself and couldn't have gotten a better birthday present thank you all of nothing yes it's a good night for stargazing liz it's clear as a bell up there now who would call him at this time hello is this the star of the

magic

school bus well i'm the producer well about your show about the stars no one can visit the stars who are you trying to kid? ok even though astronauts have been to the moon and back you're right the stars are too far away for today's spaceship to reach ok but suppose we did build a spaceship how long would it take to get there? all our lives the stars on our show were so far away that to get there and back before you got old you would have to travel faster than the speed of light and you can't travel faster than the speed of light but miss frizzle led the kids there hey that's why he drives a magical school bus it was the only way to get there well there's something else bothering me since our son is a star well you know he's not going.

Well, he will, but not for long. He has been shining for more than four billion years and has another four or five billion years left. That is early. One more question. They sure made that new onestar in a hurry it really does take millions of years for a new star to form from the remains of an old one millions of years and a couple of minutes guys you're always speeding up time but this program takes the cake you mean liz takes the cake you're right good nights are you ready liz perfect a new constellation the constellation magical school bus you
