Re: The Universe
This is a great show. I kind of wonder why it's on the History Channel instead of the Discovery Channel or the Science Channel, but it's really rad. I'll have to catch the late showing of this; I've been fascinated with how stars work for a long time.

Re: The Universe
i know how stars work.
"Modern Astrophysics" by Carroll and Ostlie chapters 7-17. Best text out there if you REALLY want to know how stars work, that is to say in a rigorous fashion. Of course for a lot of that material highish level math and physics are required to make any sense of the material. But you aren't going to get a real understanding without that grounding. Any other form of "understanding" is superficial, hand-wavy, and, while good for one's general edification, is not of much use.
