The chemical composition of the stars In the early days of astrophysics, scientists thought that the stars were probably similar to the Earth in chemical composition. When they passed starlight through a prism and examined the resulting spectrum, they found absorption (and occasionally emission) lines of many elements common here on Earth. For example, here's a portion of the spectrum of Arcturus (taken from a paper by Hinkle, Wallace and Livingstone, PASP 107, 1042, 1995):

In the nineteen-twenties, Cecilia Payne studied the spectra of stars, and devised a way to figure out the temperature and true chemical composition of stars. She concluded that the atmospheres of stars were NOT made up of the same mix of elements as the Earth NOT wildly variable in composition but in fact, almost entirely hydrogen, in almost all stars This was so surprising that scientists ignored or rejected the idea for several years. Eventually, after further study confirmed Payne's work, the astronomical community had to concede that the stars were, in fact, very different from the Earth. They appeared to be made up of 90% hydrogen (by number of atoms) 10% helium tiny traces of heavy elements (everything else)

Helium-4. [ 4 He/(H+He)] = 0.23 Deuterium. [ 2 H/H] = 1.5 x Helium-3. [ 3 He/H] = (1.2-15) x Lithium-7. log[ 7 Li/H] = -9.8 Tritium 3 H is unstable with a half-life of years. Observational Abundances of Light Elements: 2 H, 3 H, 3 He, 4 He, 7 Li Ω b ≈ 0.03

The first observations of the CMB were made by McKellar using interstellar molecules in The image at right shows a spectrum of the star zeta Oph taken in 1940 which shows the weak R(1) line from rotationally excited CN. The significance of these data was not realized at the time, and there is even a line in the 1950 book Spectra of Diatomic Molecules by the Nobel-prize winning physicist Gerhard Herzberg, noting the 2.3 K rotational temperature of the cyanogen molecule (CN) in interstellar space but stating that it had "only a very restricted meaning." We now know that this molecule is primarily excited by the CMB implying a brightness temperature of T o = / K at a wavelength of 2.64 mm In order to make a blackbody spectrum, an object as to be opaque, non-reflective and isothermal. Thus a star, which is opaque, does not produce a blackbody spectrum because we can see both cooler outer layers and hotter deeper layers. But even though the temperature of the Universe changes as it evolves, with T CMB = T o (1+z), the Universe looks isothermal because the redshifting of radiation makes the warmer but redshifted distant Universe appear to have exactly the same temperature as the Universe today.does not produce a blackbody spectrumtemperature of the Universe changes
