Suppose you see two stars a blue star and a red star what can you conclude about the two stars?

The color of a star is influenced by its temperature, with blue stars being hotter than red stars. Therefore, you could conclude that the blue star is hotter than the red star. Additionally, blue stars typically have shorter lifespans than red stars.


What is the color of the Pleiades?

The Pleiades is a open star cluster. It contains mostly blue-white type stars, so the colour of the cluster would appear to be blue-white. However, it is a cluster and not a single star. See related question.


Is a white and blue star hotter then a red star?

Yes. See the Wikipedia article on "Stellar classification". For example, a class "O" star (blue) has a surface temperature greater than 30,000 K, a class "A" star (white) has a surface temperature of 7,500 - 10,000 K, and a class "M" star (red) has a surface temperature of 2400-3700 K. (All temperatures use the absolute scale.)


What relationship do you see between star color and star temperature?

The color of a star is related to its temperature - hotter stars appear blue or white, while cooler stars appear red. This is because the temperature of a star affects the distribution of light it emits, with hotter stars emitting more blue light and cooler stars emitting more red light. The color of a star can therefore be used to estimate its temperature.


Which is hotter a red star or a blue star why?

a blue star is hotter then a red star because it is younger and thus has more energy. a good example of this is when you look at a flame on a lighter you see blue light at the bottom because blue is hottest and closest to the heat source whereas the red-orange flame at the top is farther away from the heat source and thus is not as hot as the blue.

How would the color of a star affect how life on a planet in its system might perceive colors?

I would assume that beings in such a system would not have developed the ability to see frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum that are not naturally available to them. For example, beings in a system whose star is pure yellow probably would not have developed the ability to see blue, since you need blue light in order to see blue, and yellow light doesn't have any (white light - blue light = yellow light). Another answer: I think that they would be able to see colors like we can, albeit in different hues because we have a yellow star, and yet we can see red, blue, etc. I think that if they lived in a system with a blue star, then their white point would appear a little more blue in comparison to ours. The same theory applies to other color/radiation level star systems.
