Main Sequence Star Lives

A main sequence star is a star in the most stable phase of its life cycle. During this stage, the star generates energy by fusing hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei in its core. Our Sun is a main sequence star. These stars vary in size and temperature, ranging from small, cool red dwarfs to large, ...

A main sequence star fuses hydrogen nuclei into helium nucleus in its core. This process releases a lot of energy, which is why stars shine brightly.

Because stars can be of different sizes and temperatures, the amount of energy they produce varies.

Based on their temperatures, stars are classified into the following classes: O, B, A...
