Gasp!
It’s a “sized challenged” galaxy, not a dwarf galaxy.

"It resides in the constellation Corona Australis, some 100 million light-years from Earth"
[100 million light years = 100 million x 5.9 trillion (miles)]

Oops, obviously “size” not “sized”.
The Barbera Streisand in me emerged.

“The nuclear reactions in the cores of these stars will burn through these supplies in only millions of years.”
How can some stars only last a few millions of years, but many stars last many billions of years?

Size matters.
The smaller you are the more longevity you have.
Some red dwarves will burn their fuel efficiently over TRILLIONS of years.
Blue giants gobble up their gas with maximum inefficiency and only last millions.
But that’s good. When they explode, they scatter metals.

How can some stars only last a few millions of years, but many stars last many billions of years?Depends on their mass. High mass stars burn "blue hot". Our sun is a yellow, much cooler star.

...
Due to the almost complete burning of hydrogen due to convection.
Red dwarfs are theorized to evolve into blue dwarfs. There are no blue dwarfs yet. Not even close.

Size matters. The smaller you are the more longevity you have. Not necessarily "size", but "mass". There are huge red giant stars that are among the coolest stars.

Probably should add that hotter stars burn through their fuel faster than cooler stars so the cooler stars are around alot longer than the hotter ones.

“Gasp!

Or a ‘Little Galaxy’ galaxy.

Some of those Galaxies had big 390 engines which were fuel suckers.
