K Dwarf Stars
K Dwarf Stars are a type of star classified as spectral type K. They are cooler than the Sun, with surface temperatures ranging from about 3,900 to 5,200 Kelvin. These stars are often orange in color and are smaller than G-type stars, like our Sun, but larger than M-type stars. K Dwarfs are known for their long lifespans, often lasting tens of billions of years.
These stars are relatively common in the universe and can be found in various star systems. Due to their stability and longevity, K Dwarf Stars are considered potential candidates for hosting exoplanets that may support life. Their cooler temperatures make them an interesting focus for astronomers studying planetary habitability.
