One parsec is equivalent to 3.3 light years. 150 parsecs = 150 x 3.3 = 495 light years
Goldielocks is about 20 light years away which is about 70 years
the star Yildun is 185 light years away from the sun!
4.2 light years away
No. This is a common misconception. Most of the stars we see in the night sky are no more than a few hundred light years away. The closest star outside the solar system is Proxima Centauri, which is only 4.2 light years away. At such distances the light coming in from those stars left them no more than a few hundred years ago, only 4.2 years ago in the case of Proxima Centauri. No star in our galaxy is more than 75,000 light years away. Most stars last for billions of years, so 75,000 years for a star is not long at all. There are stars in other galaxies far enough away to have died by the time their light reaches us, but they are too far away for us to see them without a powerful telescope.
The stars in each constellation are at varying distances from our solar system. The star Wolf 359, one of the nearest stars to Earth (7.78 light-years), is in Leo. Gliese 436, a faint star in Leo about 33 light years away. So to answer your question, the constellation Leo is spread out between 7 to 33 light years away. Light travels about 6 trillion miles in one year, so between 42 trillion and 198 trillion miles away.
Betelgeuse is 40,473,416.93376 AU' (Astronomical Units) from Earth.
Betelgeuse is approximately 600 light years from Earth.
Betelgeuse is about 640 light-years from the sun.
Betelgeuse is approximately 430 light years away from Earth, while Capella is about 42.9 light years away. Therefore, Betelgeuse is around 387.1 light years farther away from Capella.
Betelgeuse is a red supergiant in the constellation Orion. It is approximately 640 light years from us.
Betelgeuse is approximately 642.5 light years away from Earth.
30.659 parsecs
Sirius is approximately 2.6 parsecs or 8.6 light years away from Earth.
The distance to the star can be calculated using the parallax angle (in arcseconds) and the formula: distance (in parsecs) = 1 / parallax angle (in arcseconds). Given a parallax of 0.75 arcseconds, the star is approximately 1.33 parsecs away. Converting parsecs to light years (1 parsec ≈ 3.26 light years), the star is about 4.34 light years away.
Arcturus is approximately 37 light years away from Earth.
Betelgeuse is not the farthest star from Earth. It is a red supergiant star located in the constellation of Orion, approximately 642.5 light years away from us. There are other stars much farther away from Earth in our galaxy.
It's estimated to be about 640 light years away. However there's still a lot of uncertainty over the exact distance.
