Why couldn't the observed (trace amounts of) metals be Primordial ? Such would explain, how radiative cooling could have enabled the formation of small stars, so early.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.143.65.75 (talk) 06:52, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It is a low mas star, but it is also very old. Therefore it has become a giant. Star doesn't have to be massive to become a giant, term 'giant' refers to an evolutionary phase of stars. Star becomes a giant when the hydrogen fusion ends in its core and it starts to swell.--Jyril 17:18, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

text: With an age of around 13 billion years, this red giant star ought to have a mass of about 70% of the mass of our Sun.
All single stars with masses lower than these 70% of the Sun have a life time superior to the age of the Universe. --Siffler 17:31, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I thought about that. But if it have a mass of <80% than Sun, shouldn't it be considerably older than Universe? Or ar the numbers from here obsolete? Said: Rursus ☻ 16:30, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: (Besides, stars being older than Universe is not a situation out of the ordinary, precisely – they've tended to be absurdely old for many decades by now – or the Universe absurdely young). Said: Rursus ☻ 16:34, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
