Extreme Hypothetical Stars

The video explores the concept of quasi stars and electroweak stars, two theoretical types of stars that have not yet been observed. Quasi stars are thought to form with a black hole at their core, potentially existing in the early universe. Electroweak stars, on the other hand, are believed to form after a supernova, with extreme temperatures causing quarks to transform into leptons. Both types of stars are held up by radiation pressure, but their existence remains speculative. The video concludes with a call to support SciShow Space on Patreon.
