Measurement of Betelgeuse shows star far larger than the Sun
Robert H. Moulton reports on Michelson's interferometer work at Mount Wilson observatory revealing Alpha Orionis Betelgeuse is about 500,000,000 miles across with a diameter over 900 million miles and an angularly measurable distance. The piece covers the method, implications for relativity, and Einstein's theory in light of these measurements.
