Not all stars will have planets, but, a star is a star.

The variations from one star to another comes from age, volume and location.

Really old stars tend to be red stars, big stars tend to age rapidly, and, stars in orbit around each other tend to have weird things happen due to gravity (small, dense stars drawing matter off the bigger, less dense stars).

Do people/life forms on other planets call a ‘star’ a ‘star?’

Why doesn’t Earth’s Moon have Her own name? Other PLANETS have names for their moons! Unfair! :(

I think calling her, ‘Diana’ would be PERFECT! :)

Obviously, my pea-sized brain cannot take in all of this ‘space stuff.’ :)
