Its possible to see Sirus. Its the brightest star you can in the Sky.
Sirius is the brightest star and can be seen from the UK. Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirius ----
The brightest star as seen from Earth is the sun. The brightest star in the night sky is Sirius.
The Sun, otherwise known as Sol. In at second, Sirius.
The star Sirius is the brightest star visible from the earth. Sirius is in the Canis Major constelation, and is therefore often refered to as "the Dog Star"
As seen from Earth, yes, Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky. In terms of actual brightness, no.
It was deduced mathematically in 1844 by Bessel, but Sirius B was not seen until 1862 by Alvin Clark.
The brightest star in the night sky as seen from Earth is Sirius, also known as the "Dog Star." It is part of the Canis Major constellation and is located relatively close to Earth, which contributes to its brightness.
No, Sirius is not an asteroid. Sirius is a binary star system consisting of the brighter star, Sirius A, and its companion, Sirius B, which is a white dwarf star. It is the brightest star in the Earth's night sky.
Observed from Earth there are no brighter stars at the night sky. If you see something that is brighter, it will be a planet.
The brightest star visible from the southeast US is Sirius, also known as the Dog Star. Sirius is part of the constellation Canis Major and is easily identifiable in the night sky due to its brilliance.
The star Sirius is not a planet or even a single star but is in fact a binary star, or two stars that orbit each other. Together, these two stars are often called The Dog Star, as they are the brightest object in the constellation Canis Major - or The Big Dog. The stars, named Sirius A and Sirius B, orbit each other about 20 Astronomical Units (the distance from the Sun to the planet Uranus) that takes about 50 years to complete on orbit. Right now, they appear to be moving away from each other and will reach their maximum separation on the year 2019. At a distance of roughly 8.6 light years, the Sirius binary star system is actually relatively close to us. Sirius A (the larger of the two binary stars) is also extraordinarily bright, about 25 time brighter than our sun. These two factors make Sirius one of the top ten brightest stars in our night sky. While Sirius A is very large and bright, Sirius B (the smaller of the two binary stars) is significantly smaller than it's companion - about the size of our Earth. But even at it's small size, Sirius B still has nearly the same mass as our Sun. That much mass in such a tiny space means more surface gravity (about twice that of Sirius A) and more heat (about 2.5 times that of Sirius A). Just because it's small, doesn't mean it's not awesome. Sirius is considered a wintertime star, usually only seen between the months of December and March. It is part of the Winter Triangle asterism along with Betelgeuse and Procyon. So if you're in the Northern Hemisphere and the weather begins to turn cold, take a look into the southern night sky and find Sirius, The Dog Star!
Yes, Sirius is a bright star and is visible in the northern hemisphere during the summer months. It is one of the brightest stars in the night sky and can be seen low on the horizon in the southeast during the summer evenings.
