Stars under three solar masses will cool or accrete in binaries until their fuel runs out. In contrast, stars over three solar masses may collapse into black holes after a Type 2 Supernova. Black holes, which form an event horizon preventing light escape, can also expel energy when overloaded, eventually becoming singularities.

This nebula was the result of the collapse of an interstellar cloud of gas and dust, which contracted (conserving its angular momentum) to form our star, the Sun, surrounded by a thin, spinning disk of dust and vapor. Condensation in the disk led to the formation of planetesimals, which became the building blocks of the planets.
