Antares or Jyeshta


Antares or Jyeshta or Thrikketa. Her radius is 883 times that of our Sun ! A red
supergiant !

Antares is comparable with the great Betelguese in the
Orion. With a diameter of more than 600 million miles, she has a color index of
more than +1.83. This redness is the advanced evolutionary stage of a super
giant. Is it by chance our forefathers called Antares Jyeshta or the oldest ?
