Maybe not as long as stars are huge, exploding balls of burning gases.

I'm sure that you mean "Will we be able to travel to distant star systems!" It's possible. Scientists today are looking into different forms of space travel. We've sent exploratory vehicles out past our solar system already, and are working on sending people to Mars to explore. It's not likely to happen in our lifetime, but someday perhaps humans will leave Earth and explore the universe.

Does a nebula ever die?

Nebulas do not actually "die" in the sense that they are dynamic and ever-changing regions of space where new stars can be born. As stars within a nebula use up their fuel and eventually die, the nebula can disperse or be reshaped by the forces of the dying star. The material in a nebula can be recycled to form new stars and planetary systems.


Do all-stars turn into a red giant?

Most stars will. A red dwarf is believed to be fully convective and may be able to use up all of it's hydrogen without ever becoming a red giant. However, because of their extended lifespans - no red dwarfs have been observed at the end of their life.


What is the role that gravity played in the formation of planets stars and solar systems and in determining their motions?

There is no doubt that planets, stars, and solar systems could not ever have formed without gravity. All of these astronomical objects condensed out of clouds of interstellar gas and dust, under the influence of gravity. It is also true that planets orbit stars only because of the gravitational attraction of those stars.


How old are the stars?

The age of stars can vary widely depending on their size and type. For example, small stars like red dwarfs can live for tens of billions of years, while massive stars can have lifespans of only a few million years. The oldest known stars in the universe are estimated to be around 13.8 billion years old.
