For example, our Sun has a diameter of about 1.4 million kilometers. Some other stars are bigger - up to hundreds of times bigger. The majority of stars, however, are smaller than our Sun.
There are countless stars.
Little stars, also known as dwarf stars, can range in size from about one-tenth the size of our sun to around half the size of our sun. These stars are smaller and cooler than average stars like our sun.
Nope. It depends on how much matter the star was immersed in during its formation. More matter equals more size and vice versa.
The sun is larger than about 95% of stars in the galaxy.
No.
No.
The size of the sun is considered average compared to other stars. There are much larger stars, known as supergiants, and smaller stars, known as dwarfs, in the universe.
Size and temperature determine the brightness of stars.
The size of the sun is considered average compared to other stars in the universe. There are much larger stars, known as supergiants, and much smaller stars, known as dwarfs. The sun falls in the middle range in terms of size among the billions of stars in the universe.
Stars expand in size to become red giants, when they start running low on Hydrogen fuel.
There is no real classification for stars by size, they are usually classified by luminosity However, a rough guide is:-HypergiantsSupergiantsBright GiantsGiantsSub giantsDwarfsSub dwarfsRed dwarfsWhite dwarfsBrown dwarfsNeutron starsSee related link for a spectral class breakdown and examples
