All About The Regulus Star By Scott Cusimano

Regulus’ background information • Radius: 3.15–4.15/0.5/? Solar Radius • Color: White •Temperature: 10,300–15,400 Kelvin Luminosity: 150/0.31 Constellation: Leo Mass: 3.5/0.8/0.2 Solar Mass Age: 5 × 107 years Distance From Sun: 79 Light Years

More information Regulus is in the main sequence of the H-R diagram. Regulus is also in the ”Large Star” stage of it’s life Regulus started out as a nebula, and it will end as a black hole

Constellation Leo Leo, pictured below, is a tale of a lion. Leo was a vicious lion. He had terrorized the city of Nemea. This caused Hercules to respond by killing ‘the beast’.

Constellation Leo Here is one diagram of Leo. (The constellation) Regulus is located in the red circle.
