Probably the comparison of the Sun with the average star is the greatest source of an error. Well,if you're really interested, you may want to check every individual step, there are too many of them and I don't think that too many people would be interested in the refinements of the argument. | |
| Apr 22, 2016 at 10:26 | comment | added | Ilja | your answer is by factor of 50 away from the value of SpiderPig (which I think can not be wrong, since measured). What do you think could be the reason? I have some idea, but 50x... is quite a lot :) | |
