The distance from the sun to Earth is 1.496x10^8 km. How long does it take light to travel from the sun to Earth?
The sun is the only star whose size we can easily measure directly; astronomers therefore estimate the sizes of other stars using Stefan's law.
The spectrum of the star Betelgeuse, plotted as a function of energy, peaks at a photon energy of 0.8 eV, while Betelgeuse is approximately 10,000 times as luminous as the sun. How does the radius of Betelgeuse compare to the sun's radius? Why is Betelgeuse called a "red supergiant"?

The solar flux at Earth will also increase by a factor of 2000.

This means the Earth's surface flux must also increase by a factor of 2000.
