( See the State Dining room with the Silver Trust Silver in use for a luncheon ) Above the fireplace, overlooking the room, is a massive portrait by John Shackleton of George II, the king who originally gave the building to the First Lord of the Treasury in 1732.

In that time he also kept a wide ranging visual record of all the great bands he worked with on formats ranging from Super 8 / 16mm and 35mm to VHSC, Digibeta and all formats in between. From these sources he has created the musical memoir film that is ' Saunders Lewis vs Andy Warhol '. Emyr calls the film ....' a group portrait from a time before our music was Cool or devolved, and a film created exclusively from the images that I shot and produced at that time augmented by words that were said directly to me .......' The film includes a massive list of influential musicians caught exclusively for his camera and also featured in exclusive conversations with Emyr-Among those who appear ...

Theoretical models show that the CNO cycle is the dominant source of energy in stars more massive than about 1. 3 times the mass of the Sun.

Observations using the Spitzer Space Telescope indicate that extremely massive stars of spectral category O, which are much hotter than our Sun, produce a photo-evaporation effect that inhibits planetary formation.

They are among the most massive objects in the Solar System outside the Sun and the eight planets, with radii larger than any of the dwarf planets.

Solar panels were not a practical solution for Galileos power needs at Jupiter's distance from the Sun ( it would have needed a minimum of of solar panels ); as for batteries, they would have been prohibitively massive due to the technological limitations of the time.

In addition, Coronal mass ejections from the Sun are highly dangerous, and are fatal within a very short timescale to humans unless they are protected by massive shielding.

This is suitable for stars at least as massive as the Sun, exhibiting the CNO cycle, and gives the better fit R ∝ M < sup > 0. 78 </ sup >.

If the heavier body is much more massive than the smaller, as for a satellite or small moon orbiting a planet or for the Earth orbiting the Sun, it is accurate and convenient to describe the motion in a coordinate system that is centered on the heavier body, and we say that the lighter body is in orbit around the heavier.

Relativistic effects cease to be negligible when near very massive bodies ( as with the precession of Mercury's orbit about the Sun ), or when extreme precision is needed ( as with calculations of the orbital elements and time signal references for GPS satellites.

Stars with at least half the mass of the Sun can also begin to generate energy through the fusion of helium at their core, while more massive stars can fuse heavier elements along a series of concentric shells.

Vega is only about a tenth of the age of the Sun, but since it is 2. 1 times as massive its expected lifetime is also one tenth of that of the Sun ; both stars are at present approaching the midpoint of their life expectancies.

It has a mass equivalent to approximately 10 billion times the mass of our Sun ( 10 < sup > 10 </ sup > solar masses ), making it roughly 1 / 100 as massive as the Milky Way, and a diameter of about 14, 000 light-years (~ 4. 3 kpc ).

The nearest nebula to the Sun where massive stars are being formed is the Orion nebula, away .< ref > However, lower mass star formation is occurring about 400 – 450 light years distant in the ρ Ophiuchi cloud complex.

At 265 it is one of the most massive and most luminous stars yet identified, boasting a total luminosity 8, 700, 000 times that of the Sun .< ref name = CROWTHER >

The HDE 226868 / Cygnus X-1 system shares a common motion through space with an association of massive stars named Cygnus OB3, which is located at roughly from the Sun.

The most massive star in the Eta Carinae multiple star system probably has more than 100 times the mass of the Sun.

It can be assumed that a massive Coronal mass ejection ( CME ), associated with the flare, was launched from the Sun and reached the Earth within eighteen hours — a trip that normally takes three to four days.

Classical Cepheids are population I variable stars which are 4 – 20 times more massive than the Sun, and up to 100, 000 times more luminous.

Epsilon Eridani is smaller and less massive than the Sun, and has a comparatively lower level of elements heavier than helium.

For a long time it has been argued that AGN must be powered by accretion onto massive black holes ( with masses between 10 < sup > 6 </ sup > and 10 < sup > 10 </ sup > times that of the Sun ).

* Kepler's laws of planetary motion, which can be mathematically derived from Newton's laws, hold strictly only in describing the motion of two gravitating bodies, in the absence of non-gravitational forces, or approximately when the gravity of a single massive body like the Sun dominates other effects:

These stars are many times more massive than the Sun, and are the shortest-lived stars, with total lifetimes of only a few million years ( compared to stars like the Sun, which live for several billion years ).
