The Sun is a yellow dwarf. The term main sequence is a period in a stars life.

If the Sun was a black dwarf, we would have all died billions of years ago.

Is our sun a black dwarf?

No. The sun is a main sequence star. A black dwarf is the remnant of a dead star that has cooled. The universe is not old enough for this to have happened yet.


What is the stages of a star?

a star of about sun's mass will become a white dwarf star and will fade slowly into a black dwarf. a star of sun's 1.4 to 3 time the mass of the sun will become a neutron star. a star of more than 3 times of mass of the sun will become a black hole. hopes its help!!


What do you think the difference is between a black dwarf and a supernova explosion?

A black dwarf is a dead white dwarf. By dead, I mean a star that no longer burns. A white dwarf, in turn, is a dead "moderate" star (a star like our sun). So a black dwarf is a star that's died twice, with mass not much higher or probably lower than that of our sun. A supernova, is the "death" of a star that's really huge. By huge, I mean it has a mass that's considerably higher than that of our sun. That kind of star doesn't turn into a white dwarf. Rather, it becomes either a neutron star (pulsar or non-pulsar) or a black hole.


Is a dwarf star bigger than your sun?

Depends what type of dwarf star. - Our Sun is a yellow dwarf.


When the sun dies what kind of star will it be?

It will first become a red giant, then turn into a white dwarf and in billions and billions of years it will become a black dwarf.


Is the sun a massive star or a dwarf star?

its not a massive or a dwarf  star


Is the black dwarf a type of the sun star?

A black dwarf Star is what is thought to occur once a white dwarf star (remnant of a normal star) cools sufficiently over millions of years, and emits no or little heat. They would take billions of years to get to that stage, the universe is thought to be too young to contain any.


Will the sun become a white dwarf neutron star or a black hole?

The long-term fate of the sun according to current theories in stellar evolution, is to become a white dwarf. It lacks the mass to further collapse into a neutron star or black hole.


Is a the sun a dwarf galaxy?

It is impossible for the sun to be a dwarf galaxy because the sun is a star. But if you're asking if it's a dwarf star, then no, otherwise we'd be dead.


Is the sun a small dwarf star or a large dwarf star?

the sun is NOT a dwarf star, it is a g-type star. a dwarf is a s-type starThe Sun is a G2V star G2 means the second hottest of the yellow G class and V (the Roman numeral five) identifies the Sun as a main sequence DWARF STAR (so yes it is a dwarf star) A star with spectral S is a late-type giant star (similar to class K5-M).


Will our sun become a black hole or a neutron star?

Neither. Our Sun will turn into a red giant, and then cool to become a white dwarf.


Will the sun become a white dwarf a neutron star or a black hole and why?

According to current theories of stellar evolution, because of the Sun's mass and chemistry most likely it will become a white dwarf. It simply lacks the weight to become a neutron star or black hole.
