Stars appear mostly white to our naked eye in the night sky. Sometimes maybe a little red or yellow. But only faintly. In reality however, stars are as colorful as a rainbow! And their colors tell us a lot about the properties of each individual star, like a calling card. Their age, size, temperature, past and sometimes even their future is encoded in their chromatic appearance.  Paul sets out with you on a tour of the colors of the night sky, through red, yellow, blue and more!
