Stars look like our sun in the solar system except they are brighter and some are big and small so they have a range in size but the difference to our sun is that the stars in the universe have a timing life before they explode to a supernova and the only thig that survives in the star from the huge explosion is the inner centre of the star which is more hotter and denser than the sun about more than 14 billion degrees Celcius.

Stars are balls of hot gas like the Sun. Because they are so far away, they appear as dots of light that we see at night. We say they twinkle because their light is refracted as it passes through the atmosphere.

Stars are of various sizes and colors, and contain various stages of fusion reactions in their cores. Occasionally a mostly-dead star will flare up as a nova, brighter for a short time than other stars. Even brighter is a supernova, which marks the explosive destruction of a large star by catastrophic collapse. The gas thrown off by stars will sometimes form a "nebula" - a patch of opaque or colored gases around the star.
