A star which radiates as a blackbody has an increasing temperature almost it's entire life. If it begins as a huge, hot blue-white star, why is it that it's called a red giant when the hydrogen runs out? If the temperature is higher, it should be radiating mostly in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum, not the other way around, right?
Would appreciate any answers, thanks!
