Best Answer

white

Each star type has it's own emission spectrum. There are stars that are very hot and look blueish to the eye (but have a lot of ultra violet if you have a sensor that can detect those wavelengths) and there are stars that look reddish because they are not as hot on the surface, they still can appear bright because they are so large and can be (relatively) close to us too.

The hottest and therefore most luminous stars are always Blue.

From Earth, brightness varies due to luminosity and distance.

The Sun with an apparent magnitude of -26.74 has a colour yellow

Siruis with an apparent magnitude of -1.47 (Brightest in the Northern Hemisphere) has a colour of white to blue white

Canopus with an apparent magnitude of -0.72 (Brightest in the Southern Hemisphere) has an apparent magnitude of yellow white to white.
