Fusion, 2 hydrogen atoms turning into one Helium atoms continuously. (until the hydrogen runs out)
The primary fuel for all stars is hydrogen
The main fuel for nuclear reactions in stars is hydrogen. Through a process called nuclear fusion, hydrogen atoms combine to form helium, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. This process powers the stars and allows them to shine brightly.
Heavier stars will usually burn faster than lighter stars.
Blue white stars are more massive and burn through their fuel supply at a faster rate compared to red stars. Their high energy output causes them to exhaust their fuel more quickly, leading to shorter lifespans. In contrast, red stars have lower mass and hence a longer lifespan as they burn fuel at a slower rate.
Massive stars are more likely to use up their nuclear fuel the soonest. They burn fuel at a much faster rate due to their higher temperatures and pressures, resulting in shorter lifespans compared to smaller stars like our Sun.

larger stars have longer lives, because as stars burn they are slowly burning up fuel and begin to cave in on themselves. the larger, the more fuel, the more fuel, the longer lasting.

Hydrogen.
binary stars are two stars that orbit each other while supernovas and novas stars are stars that explode when it runs out of fuel
Heavier stars will usually burn faster than lighter stars.
Bigger stars get hotter, and use up their fuel much faster than smaller stars.
Blue stars are the hottest and brightest, but have a shorter life span and they convert all their fuel rapidly. Red stars are cooler and tend to use their fuel more slowly, give off less light, heat and other radiations.
main sequence stars of which colr use up their fuel supply in the shortest period of time? and why.
hydrogen

No, stars with the most hydrogen have the shortest lives. The more massive a star is, the faster it burns its fuel, and the sooner the core is depleted.
