First is the Nebula, a cloud of gas and dust in space where stars are born.
Second is a Star, Luminous globe of gas producing its own heat and light through nuclear reactions.
Third is Red Giant, a large bright star with cool surface, it is formed during the later stage of evolution of a star like our sun.
Fourth is the Red Dwarf, which is very cool, faint and small star.
Fifth is White Dwarf, this is a very small and the last stage in the life cycle of a star.
Sixth is the Supernova, the explosive death of a star
