Let's see...the life sequence for a YELLOW DWARF star, like ourlittle G2, will see it become a red giant in a few billion years,probably consuming everything out to the orbit of Earth and notdoing any favors to what's left of the solar system. So, in a way,its a red giant in the making. But its too small to ever be aneutron star. So, its a yellow star today, but someday will be ared giant. That's 3, maybe 4 billion years from now, so the yellowstar will still be there for a very long time to come.
