Is sirius a cold?
No. Sirius is far from a cold star. Sirius is actually a binary system about 8.6 light years away. Sirius A is a white main sequence star just over twice the size of the sun. Sirius B is a white dwarf stellar remnant of about 0.978 solar masses. The temperature of the two stars are far higher than that of our sun. The sun is about 5778 Kelvin, Sirius A is almost twice that at 9,940 K and Sirius B is many times that at 25,200 K.
What would happen if the sun was replaced by Sirius A?
Sirius A is about twice as massive as our sun, but has a surface temperature of around 10000 degrees Kelvin, compared with our suns surface temperature of around 5800 Kelvin. The Earth and all of the other planets would be a lot hotter if they remained at their current orbit, though the orbits would change as the gravitational pull of Sirius A would be greater. The water on earth would boil off and it would become a barren planet that could not support life. Even Mars may be too hot to support life if Sirius A were our star.
What is the exact mass of Sirius?
The exact mass of Sirius, which is a binary star system consisting of Sirius A and Sirius B, is approximately 2.1 solar masses (where one solar mass is the mass of our Sun). Specifically, Sirius A has a mass around 2.1 times that of the Sun, while Sirius B, the white dwarf companion, has a mass about 0.98 solar masses. Together, their combined mass is slightly less than 3 solar masses.
How many earth can fit in sirius?
Well, darling, Sirius is about twice the size of our dear old Sun, and the Sun could fit about 1.3 million Earths inside it. So, if we do the math (which I'm sure you could handle), Sirius could fit around 2.6 million Earths inside it. But hey, who's counting? Just know it's a whole lot of Earths.
Is sirius bigger than earth?
Yes. Sirius actually consists of two stars. The main object, Sirius A is not only bigger than Earth but is almost twice the diameter of the sun. The secondary star, Sirius B is a collapsed remnant of a star called a white dwarf. It is slightly smaller than Earth but far denser.
How long does it take for one orbit of the sun?
How long does it take for Earth to orbit the Sun? One year, or 365.25636042 days.

How long does in take Pluto to orbit around the sun?
A long time.
Is the star Sirius larger than earths orbit around the sun?
No. Sirius is a binary star system. The main body, Sirius A is a white star about 1.7 times the diameter of the sun and would easily fit inside the orbit of Mercury. The secondary body, Sirius B is a white dwarf that is slightly smaller than Earth, though possessing about the same mass as the sun.
Why does it take so long for Neptune to orbit the sun?
As its further away from the Sun.
