Question: 1 / 50

What type of stars typically appear on the dark night sky?

Brown dwarf

Red dwarf

Red dwarfs are the most common type of star and produce a low amount of light, making them difficult to spot in the dark night sky. Brown dwarfs and white dwarfs are also low light-producing stars, but are less common than red dwarfs. Supergiants, on the other hand, are very bright and can be seen easily in the night sky, making them an incorrect option.

White dwarf

Supergiant
