Red Dwarf Stars
Yes. Around 76% of the stars are low luminosity stars.
The most common type is main-sequence stars. This is a fairly broad category; within it, the most common type is red dwarves.
The same type of stars that can be observed from most anywhere else in North America.
O-type stars are the most massive and hottest types of stars that form relatively recently in the Milky Way galaxy. These stars have short lifespans of a few million years before they burn out, so any O-type stars still observed today are relatively young in astronomical terms.
Stars that are most like the sun are called G-type main sequence stars. Examples of such stars include Alpha Centauri A and Tau Ceti. These stars have similar temperature, luminosity, and spectral characteristics to our sun.
Most "yellow" stars fall into the classification of type G - the same as our Sun.They have an absolute magnitude of around 5.
Red Dwarf Stars
The most massive main sequence stars are typically blue in color, due to their high surface temperatures. These stars are known as O-type stars and can be tens of times more massive than the Sun.
