Our Sun is a Main Sequence star, between 4 and 5 billion years old and very stable. About 80% of stars are smaller that the Sun, and a few are much bigger. Most of the stars we can seewithout telescopes are the giants, because they're so much brighter.

∙ 8y agoCompared to other very luminous stars, the Sun is an average star in almost every way: it is average in size, average in temperature, and average in density.
However, it's only one of a very small percentage of "large" stars in the universe. Scientists estimate that as many as 75% of all stars are red dwarfs, and less than half the size of the Sun.
The sun is considered to be the most powerful star in the solar system.
