Is R136a1 zeta tauri?
No. R136a1 is in the Tarantula Nebula, in the Large Magellanic Cloud, in the constellation Dorado
How large is R136a1?
R136a1 is a blue hypergiant star located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It is estimated to be approximately 265 times the mass of our Sun, making it one of the most massive stars known in the universe.
Are the hottest main-sequence stars the most massive?
The most massive star known is R136A1 - a rather disappointing name - has a temperature of about 53,000 degrees kelvin. Our Sun for comparison is a mere 5,778 degrees kelvin.
Which star is hottest supergiant?
Cygnus OB2-12 is a very bright blue hypergiant with a temperature of about 18,500K
What is the hottest supergiant?
The hottest supergiant star is known as R136a1, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It has a surface temperature of around 50,000 degrees Celsius, making it one of the hottest known stars in the universe.
Is R136a1 zeta tauri?
No. R136a1 is in the Tarantula Nebula, in the Large Magellanic Cloud, in the constellation Dorado
What would happen if the sun was replaced by R136a1?
R136a1's heat would probably vaporize all of the planets.
What is the most deadliest star?
r136a1
What is bigger R136a1or VY Canis Majoris?
As far as mass goes, R136a1 beats out VY Canis Majoris by 253 solar masses (265 solar masses for R136a1 vs Canis Majoris' 30). However, VY Canis Majoris beats out R136a1 in radius by about 1,385 solar radii (Canis Majoris is 1,420 solar radii vs R136a1's ~35).
How hot is the center of r136a1?
The center of R136a1, which is a massive star in the Tarantula Nebula, can reach temperatures of around 70,000 degrees Celsius (125,000 degrees Fahrenheit). This extreme heat is generated by the nuclear fusion process happening in the star's core, where hydrogen is being converted into helium.
How large is R136a1?
R136a1 is a blue hypergiant star located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It is estimated to be approximately 265 times the mass of our Sun, making it one of the most massive stars known in the universe.
What is the new massive star?
It is called R136a1. It is in a star cluster in a nearby galaxy.
Which star is more luminous R136a1 or VY Canis Majoris?
R136a1 is the most luminous at about 8,700,000 times more than the Sun. VY Canis Majoris is only 450,000 times more luminous than our Sun.
Which star is more powerful R136a1 or VY Canis Majoris?
R136a1 is the brightest known star. VY Canis Majoris. Its bolometric luminosity is estimated at 8.7 million times that of our Sun. VY Canis Majoris has a bolometric luminosity estimated at 450,000 that of the Sun, which is still very powerful. Bolometric luminosity refers to the entire radiation emitted at all wavelengths (not only visible light), so it is a measure of the power emitted by the star.
What would happen if VY canis majoris smashed into r136a1?
VY Canis Majoris will spill gas onto R136a1 or destroy it or the stars will explode in high amounts of gamma rays into space no one knows how stars smash together or probably no one saw a star collision yet
What do R136a1 and your sun have in common?
Both are stars. Other than that, not much: R136a1 is a Wolf-Rayet star, and is both the most massive and the most luminous star known, making it quite different to our Sun. Its large mass (and corresponding high energy output) also make it relatively short-lived.
What is the most massive main sequence star?
At the moment R136a1 still holds the title, so see related question.
