Red dwarfs are set to be the last stars standing in the universe, but that won't happen for a while. Current cosmic conditions allow for star formation to continue for a staggering 100 trillion years, as the universe is still a mere 13.8 billion years old.
As stars eventually exhaust their hydrogen fuel and fade away, red dwarfs will outlast them all, boasting lifespans that could reach up to 10 trillion years. However, since none have been observed to die yet, these figures remain theoretical.
