A star is born when atoms of light elements are squeezed under enough pressure for their nuclei to undergo fusion. All stars are the result of a balance of forces: the force of gravity compresses atoms in interstellar gas until the fusion reactions begin.

The ISM is the name given to the gas and dust that exists between the stars within a galaxy.It is 99% gas and 1% dust, by mass.tars form in the densest regions of the interstellar medium, or ISM, called molecular clouds.
