Yulduzlari

Yulduzlari is Uzbek for "the stars" or "their stars," formed from yulduz (star) plus the plural suffix -lar and the possessive suffix -i/lari. In Uzbek texts, yulduzlari may refer to stars in general or to the stars belonging to someone or something, depending on context.

Stars are luminous spheres of plasma held together by gravity. They shine because nuclear fusion in their cores converts hydrogen into helium, releasing energy as light and heat. Most stars form from cold, dense regions of interstellar gas and dust that collapse under gravity, creating protostars that eventually ignite.

Stellar lifetimes and end states depend largely on mass. Low- and intermediate-mass stars like the Sun spend much of their lives on the main sequence, later becoming red giants and, for many, ending as white dwarfs surrounded by planetary nebulae. Massive stars may end their lives in supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.

From Earth, stars appear as points of light in the night sky. Their brightness is described by magnitude, and their positions define constellations. Observations are enhanced by telescopes and are used for navigation, timekeeping, and astronomical research. In cultural contexts, stars have long inspired navigation, myth, and art, including Uzbek literature and folklore.
