The average star 'lives' for roughly 12 billion years. This wonderful video provides us with a visual glimpse into the entire life cycle of a G-type star, like our sun, from birth to death [6:29]

Interesting! The age of stars around the black hole at the centre of our galaxy is much younger, less than 10 million years. It gives me a certain perspective to realize that is young!
Nice video.
The song that the soundtrack is based on is apparently:

The visuals rather prioritize showiness over information (and that music... ugh...)
Thanks for posting that video and reminding your readers how important I am in the universe (i.e. very important). I wonder why I wasn't in the credits.
