Compared to other stars' in our known Universe, The Sun(Sol) Is actually a quite small star. That has been to our advantage. Small star: Long life. Long life - more chance of life developing on a planet or planets in that solar system. Large, blue-white stars frequently have a lifetime of ten to twenty million years, start to finish. It is extremely doubtful that any life of even the simplest kinds could have developed on a planet in only that amount of time, as we understand the conditions that bring about life.
