A typical star is primarily composed of hydrogen (~74%) and helium (~24%), with traces of heavier elements like carbon, oxygen, and iron. The core of a star undergoes nuclear fusion, where hydrogen is converted into helium, releasing energy in the form of light and heat.

A star, or stars.
There is no stationary star anywhere in the universe.
Many planets around each star reflect the star's light. For example think about Earth's orbit around the sun, a big star
It will destroy it in a cataclysmic explosion.
A variable star is a star whose brightness as seen from Earth that fluctuates.
Variable stars are those that have changing luminosities. There are two kinds of variable stars: intrinsic (where the variation is due to physical changes in the star), and extrinsic (where the variation is due to the eclipse of one star by another, or due to the effect of stellar rotation). They can be further divided into five different classes: the intrinsic pulsating, cataclysmic, eruptive variables, extrinsic eclipsing binary, and rotating stars.
A variable star is a star whose brightness as seen from Earth that fluctuates.
American Association of Variable Star Observers was created in 1911.
Betelgeuse is a semi-regular variable star, meaning it does not have a consistent period like a regular variable star. Its brightness fluctuates irregularly over periods of months to years.
No, it is a continuous process but not a continuous variable. The magnitude of star-shine, across all stars is a continuous variable. The magnitude of a star's shine over time is a continuous variable.
A Supernova is not a particular star. A supernova is a cataclysmic event that occurs at the end of a high mass star life. They have been occurring for billions of years, and will continue to do so for billions more. Therefore it is not possible to put an age to it.
A pulsating star is a type of variable star that undergoes periodic changes in brightness due to expansions and contractions in its outer layers. Examples include Cepheid variables and RR Lyrae stars, which exhibit regular cycles of brightness changes. These stars are important for measuring cosmic distances, as their pulsation periods are directly related to their intrinsic luminosities.
When the star no longer undergoes nuclear fusion.
Stellar evolution is the term for the changes a star undergoes during its lifetime.
A star who's brightness changes is called a variable star.Examples are:AlgolPolarisBetelgeuse.See related link for more information.
