The radius/diameter of Rigel is about 78 solar Radii.
That is a radius of about 5.45 x 1010 meters or 0.363 AU.
That is about the distance of Mercury from the Sun (0.387 AU)!
Diameter of Rigel = 10.90 x 1010 m or 0.726 AU
All stars are made primarily of hydrogen, with lesser amounts of helium and trace amounts of heavier elements. The precise composition of each star is a little different, depending on the mass and age of the star.
Rigel is the brightest star in the constellation Orion.
It has a spectral type of B8 and is a blue supergiant.
dark blue with white spots and pink lines (pink lines r very faint and aren't able to be seen by the naked eye)
The radius of Rigel is 74 times larger than the radius of our sun. The volume of Rigel is therefore 402'224 times larger than the volume of our sun.
Rigel is in its main sequence stage of its life.
The star Rigel is a Blue supergiant.
White.

There is more than one star in the Rigel "system". The main star, in terms of brightness, is Rigel A. That has a surface temperature of about 12,000 degrees Celsius.
It is 754.81 milliarcseconds. Also, the star is Rigil Kentaurus, not Rigel which is the name of another star.
Rigel is a binary star system. It was discovered by F.G.W. Struve in 1831. It is the third brightest star system in the night sky.
In the star Rigel, 100,000,000 roughly.
the star rigel was formed just like anything else in this universe. Rigel was formed from a male star and a female star engaging in sexual activity. it a great price to pay when a female star gives birth because during the process the female star explodes into a super nova and dies off to make room for rigel. it is also a great sacrifice for male stars to have children because they can only ejoy sexual intamecy once in its life. after that the stars male parts fall of and insinigrate in the heavy denseness of space. hope this helps

Rigel is a triple star system.
It will end its life as a type II supernova.
The Rigel star is a star in the Orion constellation. Rigel is the brightest star in the Orion constellation, and it is the seventh brightest star seen in the night's sky.
Rigel is the brightest star in the constellation Orion
Rigel B is also a blue-white star but, unlike Rigel A, it is a main sequence star.
It is possible but the planetary orbit would be very strange because Rigel is really a triple star system.
No. Proxima Centauri is the nearest star. Rigel is much further away.
Rigel by far.
Rigel is in the constellation Orion, not Centaurus. Please check your spelling and, if appropriate, resubmit.
No, Rigel is hotter. Rigel is a blue star with a temperature of about 11,000 K, and Betelgeuse is a red star with a temperature of about 3,500 K.
