Young stars burn hydrogen (the lightest element), converting it into helium. Later they may convert helium into heavier elements.

Are blue stars younger or older?

Blue stars are typically younger than other types of stars, as they have shorter lifespans due to their higher temperatures and faster consumption of fuel. They are often found in the later stages of their evolution, burning through their fuel quickly before ending their lives in supernova explosions.

Are blue stars young or old?

Blue stars are typically young stars, as they burn through their fuel more quickly than cooler stars. They have high surface temperatures, emitting a blue color due to their intense heat. The massive blue stars have relatively short lifespans compared to smaller, cooler stars.


Are blue stars are young or old?

Does mass of young star more than dead star?

Yes, the mass of a young star is typically more than that of a dead star. Young stars are actively fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores, generating energy and maintaining their mass. Dead stars, such as white dwarfs or neutron stars, have already exhausted their nuclear fuel and are no longer undergoing fusion processes, resulting in lower mass compared to when they were actively burning fuel.

What size stars have longer lives?

larger stars have longer lives, because as stars burn they are slowly burning up fuel and begin to cave in on themselves. the larger, the more fuel, the more fuel, the longer lasting.


Why do stars which are much massive than the sun live fast and die young?

Gravity contracts them more, making them hotter. As a result, they burn up their fuel faster.


Why are old stars more luminous than young stars?

Well, it depends on if it's positioned closer to the earth or if they are about to supernova. And since the sun is the ONLY star in our solar system that would be the most luminous. =) hoped that helped.
