    nebula‚ a cloud of dust and gas‚ which contains large amounts of hydrogen and helium. The nebula then condenses into a sphere that temperature rises because of gravity and shockwaves. This condensed nebula is called a protostar‚ which is defined as a sphere of gas with high temperatures. The temperature gets hot enough to fuse hydrogen into helium and this ignites the protostar into a star. Once the Vega fuses hydrogen into helium‚ it is considered to be a part of the main sequence.
