The two brightest stars of the constellation Orion are Rigel and Betelgeuse. Rigel is blue in appearance while Betelgeuse is red. Just based off their appearance, what can you conclude? Betelgeuse is closer to Earth than Rigel. Rigel is hotter than ...
Betelgeuse is the tenth-brightest star in the sky and makes the upper left shoulder of Orion, the Hunter. It's a red supergiant classified as a type M1, is about 13,000 times brighter than our Sun. Betelgeuse lies some 1,500 light-years away. The name comes from the Arabic term "Yad...
Accretion disk models developed in these two cases can be scaled directly to treat the main-sequence case. One of the most complex objects in our own Galaxy is the η Carina nebula, rivalling in this respect the Orion Nebula and the Crab. I suggest below that η Can itself is an ...
To mention just three well-known blue stars, there's Regulus, the brightest star in the constellation Leo, Spica, the brightest star in Virgo and Rigel, the brightest in Orion. As seen from Earth, all three stars appear similar in brightness, even though they're located at very different...
Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky during autumn, winter and early spring. To find Sirius, all you need to do is follow the line of Orion’s belt stars downward, toward the southeast - generally, toward the horizon - and there it is. Sirius also provides a nice astrophotograp...
2) Orion Nebula The Orion Nebula, at 1,500 light-years away, is the closest star-forming region to Earth and one of the brightest nebulae in the night sky. Due to its brightness and location belowOrion’s Belt,it can also be seen with the naked eye. ...
