The surface temperature of the star Antares is estimated to be around 3,500 to 3,600 degrees Celsius, or 6,300 to 6,500 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes it a relatively cool red supergiant star compared to other stars.
Yes, Antares is a binary star system, consisting of a red giant star (Antares A) and a smaller companion star (Antares B). The two stars are orbiting each other, with Antares A being the primary component.
Yes, Antares is larger than V382 Carinae. Antares is a red supergiant star, while V382 Carinae is a white hypergiant star. The size of a star is determined by its radius, and Antares has a larger radius compared to V382 Carinae.
At 883 times the size of our Sun, the supergiant star Antares is very much 'alive'.
Antares is a red supergiant star and not a constellation or an asterism.
Antares is a slow variable star. All stars are "thermal"

antares is one of the biggest star known.
Antares (Alpha Scorpii) is a huge red hypergiant star, with a radius 800 times that of our own sun. There are some bigger stars though, such as Betelgeuse (1180 solar radii) and V354 Cephei (1520 solar radii), but the biggest known star is VY Canis Majoris, which is estimated to have a diameter between 1800 and 2100 times that of our own sun. If it were in the centre of our solar system its edges would almost reach the orbit of Saturn.
Antares is the supergiant star in the constellation Scorpio.Antares is the supergiant in the constellation Scorpio.
Betelgeuse is generally brighter than Antares. Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star in the constellation of Orion and is one of the brightest stars in the night sky, while Antares is a red supergiant in the constellation Scorpius and appears slightly dimmer than Betelgeuse from Earth's perspective.
