What is the distance from the earth to Gemini?

Beihe III (Gemini β), the bright star of 17, and the apparent magnitude of 1. 14, is a red giant with a distance of 35 light years.

Beihe II (Gemini α) is the first physical binary star confirmed by astronomical observation, with a compound magnitude of 1.58 and the 22nd bright star in the whole day, with a distance of 3 1 light-year. The apparent magnitude of sub-star αA is 1.9, and sub-star αB is 2.9. In addition, there is a companion star αC with an apparent magnitude of 8.8, all of which are spectral binaries. So Beihe II is Liuhe Star.

Jingsuyi (Gemini μ) is an irregular variable star with a brightness of 2.75-3.02 and a distance of 160 light years.

Gemini (Latin: Gemini, astronomical symbol:? ) One of the zodiac constellations, with an area of 5 13.76 square degrees, accounting for 1.245% of the whole day, ranking 30th among 88 constellations in the whole day. There are 47 stars in Gemini with brightness greater than 5.5, the brightest star is Kitagawa (Gemini β), and the apparent magnitude is 1. 14. Every year on the night of 65438+10.5, the Gemini Center will pass through the transit.

178 1 year, British astronomer William Herschel and his sister caroline herschel discovered Uranus near Gemini H. 1930, American astronomer Tom Bo discovered Pluto near Gemini δ. The Gemini project in America is named after Gemini.

Gemini's characteristics

To the west of Gemini is Taurus, and to the east is relatively dim Cancer. Auriga and the very humble Tmall are located in the north, while unicorns and Canis canis are located in the south.

Gemini has two very bright stars-Beihe III (Gemini β) and Beihe II (Gemini α). All the other stars are dark, and only γ can be seen under the city lights. But far away from light pollution, thin galaxies can be seen passing through the west of Gemini.

The winter hexagon consists of three rivers in the north, five rivers in Taurus, two rivers in Auriga, three rivers in the south of Canis, Sirius in Canis and Betelgeuse in Orion.
