      Stars come in lots of sizes depending on the point in their “lifetime” that they are at. Did you know that our Sun is also a star? It is a pretty average star and has about 5 billion years left in it’s lifetime. So I guess the answer to your question would be that a lot of the stars in the Universe look just like our own sun up close. Don’t look straight at it though if you like being able to see! 🙂
