Summary
| Description |
English: Antares A; an LC type variable red giant star, and Antares B, a class B2.5V blue main sequence star, make up a binary star system in the Scorpius constellation. Antares B is four solar radii, making it an average-sized star; however, Antares A is 800 solar radii, and were it placed in the center of our solar system, its corona would reach Jupiter. Note: this is NOT a size-comparison image — Antares B is far smaller than A. |
