The interpretation of many astrophysical phenomena relies on an in depth understanding of different areas of physics. Nuclear physics has a particularly influential role in determining the energy and matter evolution at stellar sites. As more extensive observational data is gathered from earth and space observatories, an ever-greater demand is placed on our knowledge of the basic physical processes that underpin astrophysical phenomena. Some of the associated challenges for nuclear physics are outlined in this paper.
