Yes - Sirius is a blue-white star - the hottest type of star there is.
Sirius is a binary star. The temperature of Sirius A is roughly 10,000 degrees and Sirius B is about 25,200 degrees. These are only rough estimates as it is extremely hard to measure the exact temperature of something so hot
Sirius is a binary star system.Sirius A has a temperature of about 9,940 KSirius B has a temperature of about 25,200 K
White dwarf stars are hot , but not very bright, because they are so small. An example is "Sirius B", the companion of "Sirius A", the brightest star in the sky.
No. The sun is extremely hot, but it is a star, not a planet.
The flickering star in the eastern sky tonight is most likely Sirius, also known as the Dog Star. It is the brightest star in the night sky and is visible in the early evening in the eastern sky. Sirius is a binary star system, meaning that it is made up of two stars that orbit each other. The main star, Sirius A, is a white-hot star that is much brighter than our Sun. The companion star, Sirius B, is a white dwarf star that is much fainter than Sirius A. Sirius is a very hot star, with a surface temperature of over 10,000 degrees Celsius. This heat causes the star to emit a lot of light, which is why it is so bright. Sirius is also very large, with a diameter that is about twice the diameter of our Sun. Sirius is a relatively young star, with an age of only about 250 million years. This means that it is still burning hydrogen fuel in its core. Once Sirius runs out of hydrogen fuel, it will eventually become a red giant star. Sirius is a beautiful and fascinating star that is sure to amaze stargazers for years to come.
the dog star is called sirius and is located south west of Orion belts in the southern hemisphere
Sirius is a binary star system Sirius A and Sirius B.The distance separating Sirius A from B varies between 8.1 and 31.5 AU. (See related question).
No. The North Star is Polaris. Sirius is known as the Dog Star.
The temperature of Sirius A is about 9,940K (or 9,666.85C).
Yes, Sirius is quite big while Barnard's star is small.
It is not real. Sirius is a two-star system containing only Sirius A and Sirius B.
No. Sirius is the brightest star in Earth's night sky, but how bright a star appears is a product of its actual brightness and its distance from us. Sirius itself is actually two stars with Sirius A emitting the vast majority of the system's light. Sirius A is a fairly large star, but others are much larger.
