  • Betelgeuse Solar Radius: Understanding the Red Supergiant's Size
    Betelgeuse's solar radius is approximately 950 solar radii. This means it's nearly 950 times wider than the Sun.

    Here's a breakdown of what that means:

    * Solar radius: The radius of the Sun, which is about 695,000 kilometers (432,000 miles).

    * Betelgeuse's radius: Approximately 950 times the solar radius, which is about 660 million kilometers (410 million miles).

    If Betelgeuse were to replace our Sun, its surface would extend past the orbit of Jupiter!
