Name the four main types of stars?
The four types of stars are; Main Sequence, White Swarfs, Red Giants and Super Giants. 90% of stars are in the Main Sequence.
What does main sequence mean?
The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is a scatter graph of stars in which a star's luminosity (brightness) is plotted against its colour (temperature). Stars are not distributed all over this chart. A majority of stars lie on or near the diagonal which goes from top left (hot and bright) to bottom left (cooler and less bright). These are the main sequence stars.There are also white dwarfs which are below the main sequence whereas stars which are giants and super giants lie in the region above the main sequence.
Compare and contrast super giants and giant stars?
Super giants are more massive and have larger radii than giant stars. Super giants are in a more advanced stage of stellar evolution compared to giant stars. Both types of stars eventually exhaust their nuclear fuel and go on to evolve into other stages, such as supernovae or white dwarfs.
Are super giants stars the hottest stars?
The bigger the star the hotter it is and the shorter the time it exists for.
What happens to a star when it becomes a super giant?
Some do, some become "bright giants" instead.

What stars are super giants?
super giants are a very very big star
What stars die out the quickest?
Blue Giants or Super Giants
What do all stars eventually turn into?
All stars eventually turn into Red Giants or Super Giants

How do neutrons stars differ from super giants stars?
They are the corpses of some super giants. They are very small, but have the same gravity and mass as their old self.

Super giants are more massive and have larger radii than giant stars. Super giants are in a more advanced stage of stellar evolution compared to giant stars. Both types of stars eventually exhaust their nuclear fuel and go on to evolve into other stages, such as supernovae or white dwarfs.
How are super-Giants are formed?
Supergiants develop when massive main-sequence stars run out of hydrogen in their cores. They then start to expand, just like lower-mass stars, but unlike lower-mass stars, they begin to fuse helium in the core almost immediately.
Are super giants stars the hottest stars?
The bigger the star the hotter it is and the shorter the time it exists for.
What is the name for older stars?
"Main sequence" stars are no longer new, and are just cookin' along for millions of years. "Main sequence" stars, depending on their weight and whether they orbit another nearby star can get old and become red dwarfs, white dwarfs, black dwarfs, neutron stars, novas, or super-novas.
What happens to a star when it becomes a super giant?
Some do, some become "bright giants" instead.
Which of these stars produces the most light?
Well light wise the highest category would be blue giants, red giants, and super red giants.
