The color of a star indicates its brightness, temperature, and age. Astronomers classify stars into groups called "spectral types." From oldest to youngest and hottest to coolest, below are types of stars. Temperature Type Color Fahrenheit Celsius O Blue 45,000-75,000 25,000-40,000 B Blue 20,800-45,000 11,000-20,000 A Blue-white 13,500-20,000 7,500-11,000 F White 10,800-13,500 6,000-7,500 G Yellow 9,000-10,800 5,000-6,000 K Orange 6,300-9,000 3,500-5,000 M Red 5,400-6,300 3,000-3,500
