how old are the stars?

Answer 1

I would suggest you read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stars for more information. Simply put most of the stars we see are billions of years old.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 2

The first generation of stars were believed to be formed about 20 some odd billion years ago though few are still around today. Ours is a third generation star about 10 billion years old.

This assumes, of course, that those creates from the matter in our local "big bang" are the only ones which is assuming a lot in an infinite universe. Likely, there are much older (and younger) groups well beyond our ability to see.

Large hot stars live for a few million years, smaller cooler ones like Sol, our sun, live for several billion years.

Answer 3

Stars are of different ages, but if you want to know the oldest known stars, they are:

clockwork stars - Extremely old, dim, white dwarf stars with ages around 13 billion years or more, most commonly existing in the Galactic globular clusters. Their ages conform respectively to the presumed age of the universe.




PS: LMAO at Jason

Answer 4

It is more than what you think. No one has ever counted the age of stars as stars were already there before living things were born on Earth.

Answer 5

A hell of a lot older than they look

Answer 6

million & million of years
