    Rigel is 74 times larger than the Sun.

    Rigel has radiation 66,000 times more powerful than the Sun's radiation output due to its output of other radiations besides visible light, the Sun.

    Rigel has a surface temperature of about over 20,000 degrees, twice that of the sun and 3 1/2 times hotter than Betelgeuse.

    Rigel: Astronomers classify it as a blue supergiant at a distance of 860 light years. Rigel is a massive blue supergiant calculated to be anywhere from 61,500 to 363,000 times as luminous (brighter) as the sun. Rigel's radius is over 70 times that of the sun.
