If Rigel was our sun, how far away would earth have to be from it to be habitable?


Rate This Answer

We could not live as close to Rigel as we are to the sun, because its surface temperature is much hotter, about 19,000 degrees F (11,000K) in contrast to about 10,000 degrees F for the sun. Earth would need to be about 200 times farther away, or about 5 times as far as Pluto. ChaCha 24/7!
