How does the sun temperature compare to stars?
The sun is a star - so it's the same as any star its size.
How did they now Goldilocks is a planet?
A "Goldilocks planet" is ANY planet that orbits its star at a distance from that star where the heat from the star means that any water present on the planet is in liquid form. This can be determined by measuring the stars temperature (its size and colour) and observing the planets orbital distance.
How is the sun different in size and temperature from a star?
It isn't. The sun is a star and there are others that are similar in size and temperature.
How you can determine the star of a star planet?
You can determine star of a star planet by its color also you can determine its temperature by its color by:Joshua R. Dapitillo thanks=)
What is known about planet HD 97658 b?
Besides the fact that it exists, very little. We know - approximately - what orbit it is in, and how far away it is from the parent star. We can calculate, VERY roughly, what the surface temperature of the planet might be, based on the brightness of the star and the distance to the planet. We can barely guess at the size of the planet, based on how much it occults the star.
Why was Pluto declare to be a star?
Pluto is not a star. It was never declared a star. It is a dwarf planet. It had been regarded as a planet, but due to its size and its orbit, it is now classified as a dwarf planet, but not a star.
How can you decide what sort of star a star is?
By its temperature, size, and color.
What characteristic of star?
By their size, distance, and temperature
What Characteristics of the star?
By their size, distance, and temperature
What are the factors that affect the luminosity of the star?
Its size and temperature.
Does the color of the star depends on its size?
No it depends on its temperature.
The depth of the dip in a star's brightness due to the transit of a planet depends most directly on?
the planet's size
