Giant Sun and Canopus Compared to Earth
A historical note cites Prof Ellison placing a gigantic sun Canopus 40 000 times brighter than the real sun, with diameter 184 times larger and volume 220 000 times greater. At 480 light years away, if placed at Earth’s center it would fill 0.85 of Venus orbit and reach 70 degrees arc, making life impossible.
