Stars are like big, burning balls. Some have enough energy to explode in a big flash, while others just burn out slowly. It depends on how much fuel they started with and what kind of star they are. If a star is heavy, it might end its life in a supernova explosion, a really bright light that can be seen from far away. If it's lighter, it might become a white dwarf, glowing softly for a long time.
Examples
- A small star fades slowly, like a candle burning down.
- The Sun will eventually turn into a white dwarf and cool over time.
