Rigel is a luminous blue supergiant star located in the constellation Orion. With a mass approximately 18 times that of the Sun and a radius nearly 79 times larger, Rigel is one of the most massive and brightest stars visible from Earth. Its intense surface temperature of around 12,500 Kelvin gives it a striking blue-white color. As a young, massive star, Rigel is nearing the end of its relatively short life and will eventually explode as a supernova. Despite its enormous size, the surface gravity is lower than Earth's due to its vast radius. Rigel emits about 120,000 times the luminosity of the Sun, bathing nearby space in powerful radiation and light
