Antares is classified as an M1 supergiant star. The M1 designation says that Antares is reddish in color and cooler than many other stars. Its surface temperature of 3500 kelvins (about 5800 degrees F.) is in contrast to about 10,000 degrees F. for our sun. Even though Antaresâ surface temperature is relatively low, Antaresâ tremendous surface area â the surface from which light can escape â makes this star very bright. In fact, Antares approaches 11,000 times the brilliance of our puny sun, a G2 star. But that is just in visible light.
