High, typically 10 to 70 times (or more) the mass of our own sun.
Yes. The Sun accounts for 99.86% of the total mass of the entire Solar System.
When the sun runs out of fuel it is expected to turn into a red supergiant engulfing earth. Then it is supposed to shrink into a white dwarf.
The mass of the sun is around 3500 times that of Saturn. 3500 Saturn masses = the suns mass.
Canis Majoris is much bigger than our Sun. It is a red supergiant star approximately 1,000 times larger in diameter than the Sun.
Our Sun will eventually become a red giant, not a red supergiant. As it exhausts its hydrogen fuel in about 5 billion years, it will expand and cool, turning into a red giant. A red supergiant, on the other hand, is a larger star that has significantly more mass than the Sun and undergoes a different evolutionary path.
A supernova may have been a supergiant star at one time, but it did not have to be. Any star with a mass greater than 3 times our sun will supernova. There are millions of stars having masses between 3 solar masses and supergiant mass for every single supergiant star... and every one will supernova when it dies.
Red Giant/Supergiant, it will expand and atomise the Earth
A red giant will be about 10 to a 100 times bigger than our Sun. However that is just a red giant. A red supergiant will be about 100 to 1,500 times bigger than the Sun, whereas a red hypergiant will be anything greater that 1,500 times that of the Sun - Like VY Canis Majoris.
High, typically 10 to 70 times (or more) the mass of our own sun.
Betelgeuse boasts the diameter greater than the orbit of Jupiter. It has a mass of around 20 times the mass of the Sun, and its luminosity is almost 200,000 times greater than the Sun. So really, it is one of the biggest and brightest stars ever observed.
No. The sun is a G-type main sequence star, sometimes called a yellow dwarf.
The sun has a much greater mass than Earth, while the Moon has a smaller mass than Earth. The mass of the Sun is about 330,000 times greater than the mass of Earth, while the mass of the Moon is about 1/81st of Earth's mass.
The sun because it has more mass. The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull.
No, Antares is bigger than Betelgeuse. Antares is a red supergiant star with a diameter about 700 times that of the Sun, while Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star with a diameter about 600 times that of the Sun.
Yes, the sun is enormously more massive than the Earth.
When a star runs out of fuel, it can evolve into a red giant or a white dwarf, depending on its mass. Low to medium-mass stars (like our Sun) will expand and become red giants. High-mass stars will undergo a supernova explosion, leaving behind a dense core known as a white dwarf.
