"Gravity pulls gases and dust particles in space toward one another, squeezing them into a smaller and smaller space. The temperature at the
center rises and will eventually lead to nuclear fusion of Hydrogen" What
stage in a stars life cycle is this describing?

- The birth of a star
- The death of a star
- Planetary nebula
- Black hole
