There are four main types of stars, which can further be subdivided into many smaller groups as show below. They are:
Main sequence (dwarf) stars: Most stars will spend most of their time in this condition
Subdwarfs: exceptionally small and dim stars
Giants: Exceptionally large stars. They can be high mass and live short lives or they can be main-sequence stars nearing the end of their life.
Stellar remnants: The leftovers after a star dies. This can be a white/black dwarf, neutron star, black hole, etc.
Stars are organized into groups based on their spectral type and absolute magnitude.
Some of the different types of stars are:-
- Hyper giants - like VY Canis Majoris
- Supergiants - like Deneb
- Bright giants - like β Scuti
- Giants - like Pollux
- Subgiants - like ε Reticuli
- Dwarfs - like our own Sun
- Sub dwarfs like - SSSPM J1930-4311
However, different classification group stars in different naming convention but the overall value of the star is the same.
Spectral types:
- O,B,A,F,G,K,M types of stars which is based on there luminosity verses their temperature.
Stellar remnants are:
- White dwarf
- Neutron star
- Pulsar
- Black hole
Other types are:
- Red giant
- Red dwarf
- Brown dwarf
- Yellow dwarf - Our Sun
- Brown dwarf
- Black dwarf.
Some of the less known types are:-
- Carbon dwarf
- Methane dwarf
- Carbon stars
- Wolf Rayet
- Protostar - the first stage in a stars formation
and....... many more.

- Main sequence stars, like our sun, are in the middle stage of their stellar evolution.
- Red giant stars are large, evolved stars that have exhausted their core hydrogen.
- White dwarf stars are small, dense remnants of stars that have completed their life cycle.

∙ 6y agoStars are classified by their type and temperature. Amongst some of the types of stars in our galaxy are white dwarfs, blue giants, and red supergiants. Our own Sun is a yellow dwarf, and like most stars is a main-sequence star.

VV Cephei
Betelgeuse is a favourite as it is some times pronounced Beetle juice
KW Sagittarii
Antares
S Pegasi
S Orionis
KW Sagittarii
That will do for you for know
When you know all about these then you should find out the entire list of massive stars

∙ 13y agoThere are four types of binary stars.
- Visual binaries: Where the distance between the two stars can be distinguished with a telescope.
- Spectroscopic binaries: This is where the spectral shift switches between red and blue as one star moves about the common centre of mass.
- Eclipsing binaries: Is where the stars are inline and one star eclipses the other: I.e. it moves in front of its companion.
- Astrometric binaries: Is where the visual star appears to "wobble" without any other visual reason. This is normally the case for a high density pair, where one is a neutron star.

What types of stars form Aries?
In the constellation Aries, various types of stars can be found, including main sequence stars, red giants, white dwarfs, and possibly even some neutron stars or black holes. The specific types of stars formed in this constellation will vary based on the age and stage of evolution of the stellar population present.
Name of first stars in universe?
We only name things that we can see, or detect. The first stars in the universe were likely supergiant stars that exploded in supernova explosions within a few hundred million years. The material blasted into space by the first three or four generations of rapidly-dying stars provided the raw material that came together to form our solar system.

Name the four main types of stars?
The four main types of stars are main sequence stars, red giants, white dwarfs, and supernovae. These types are classified based on their size, temperature, and stage of life.
What are three types of actual motion that stars may have?
Proper motion: The apparent movement of a star across the sky due to its actual motion through space. Radial motion: Motion of a star toward or away from an observer, causing a shift in its spectral lines due to the Doppler effect. Orbital motion: Stars in binary or multiple star systems can exhibit motion around a common center of mass due to gravitational interactions.

There are five stars in the military. Ranks above three stars were hardly ever used. There was a sixth star, but it is never used.
What are the types of suns?
The types of stars include main sequence stars (like our Sun), red giants, white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes. These types are determined by their mass, size, and stage in their life cycle.
