Are stars older than the sun?

Many are, yes, but as stars go, the sun (a type K star) will have a relatively long life - about 10 billion years. It is roughly half-way through it's life now. Smaller red stars can have even longer lives. The giant blue-white stars tend to have the shortest lives, some lasting 100 million years or less (very, very short-lived).


Do blue hyper giant stars live the shortest?

Blue hypergiant stars are massive and extremely luminous, making them burn through their fuel quickly. They have short lifespans compared to other types of stars, typically only a few million years. Despite their short lives, they play a crucial role in the evolution of galaxies and the production of heavy elements.


How do the properties of long-lived stars compare to those of short-lived stars?

Long-lived stars are typically lower in mass, shine less brightly, and have longer lifespans compared to short-lived stars. Short-lived stars tend to be more massive, burn through their fuel more rapidly, and have shorter lifespans before evolving or ending in a supernova explosion.


Do hot stars or cool stars tend to live longer?

The smaller a star the longer it lives. Smaller stars can live up to 200billion years, while a supergiant only lives about 10 billion years. Cooler stars live longer because they don't burn as much energy as a hotter star, while the larger the star, the shorter its lifespan


What type of stars end their lives as supernovae?

Massive stars with at least eight times the mass of the Sun end their lives as supernovae. During their final stages, they undergo a rapid collapse and explosion, releasing an immense amount of energy and forming a bright supernova.

Are stars with the most hydrogen for nuclear fuel have the longest lives?

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.


Which star has shortest life?

The most massive stars have the shortest lives. All stars become massive when they reach a certain age, but the most massive stars begin their lives as Red Giants. See more at the article on Stars in Related links.
