Stellar ep2: What if Our Sun Were Red Dwarf, M Class Star? SAtS
62Going through the star classes, this series will try to show and answer the questions:
1. What would it be like if our sun were replaced
2. How close do we have to be for it to take up the same angular diameter as the sun
3. How close do we have to be for it to be to be as bright in the sky as the sun (apparent magnitude)
4. How close do we have to be for it to give us conditions Earth could sustain life with.
...as well as to through some of the mindblowing details about the star classes in question, in this case, the smallest class of main-sequence star, and the smallest one of those: M class.
