<h2>Answer: The nucleus becomes entirely helium.</h2>

To shine, the stars transform their hydrogen into helium by means of <u>nuclear fusion</u>. When at half of its life a star is without hydrogen, the nucleus becomes entirely helium and <u>the star declines, becoming colder and brighter due to the energy generated by the nuclear reactions, then the star begins to contract. </u>

Nevertheless, if the star is bigger, this helium will be also consumed and the nucleus transformed in Carbon, then in Oxigen, and so on. Being the last transformation Iron until the star delivers all its energy.

Note this process will depend on how massive the star is.

The popular GPS devices that people use to find directions while driving use which type of satellite system?
inessss [21]

The popular GPS devices that people use to find directions while driving use "Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The umbrella term for all global satellite tracking systems is GNSS i.e Global Satellite Navigation System. This involves satellite constellations circulating over the surface of the earth and continuous signal transmission that allow users to evaluate their location.

A satellite array of 18–30 medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites distributed across several orbital planes typically achieves greater coverage for each network. The specific systems differ, but use > 50 ° orbital inclinations and approximately twelve hours orbital cycles.
