Stars all begin life the same way but the end of the life cycle of a star is the interesting part. Brown Dwarfs, is a fourth, remnant of a dead star after White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars, and Black Holes. Teukolsky, “Black holes, White dwarfs and Neutron stars: The physics of compact objects” (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 1983). Eventually, in 100 trillion years, the last stars will have died, all that remains are their corpses: white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Of star-forming dust [infrared in orange] along with X-ray sources [in blue] where collapsed stars – white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes – are located. Brown Dwarfs, in theory, have been around awhile, but the first to be discovered came in 1995. Short duration gamma-ray bursts are thought to be caused by the merger of some combination of white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes. Once the last of the red dwarfs exhaust their fuel, all nuclear fusion in the universe will have ceased. An artist's impression of the merger of two neutron stars.

Depending on many different variables a star can end up as a white dwarf, neutron star, or a black hole. Thumbnail, Image Description, Caption, NASA IDs, Image Size, Hi-Resolution TIFF?
