Arggh, Spica, really Demeter, earth goddess, could be corn or wheat. Daughter of Kronos, a Titan (see Greek-Saturn thread). But what's in a name? Would it still not be so bright? (kidding about name theft...sort of).Mickal, that Mensa comment was funny. You guys are too slow, :wink: it was Champion's turn, but I'm going to steal it and go to bed: What white dwarf star has almost the mass of our Sun, but is only about four times as large as Earth?

Those two statements prove that anything more than 0.6 solar masses (Melusine said ALMOST, so we can assume that it is between 0.6 and 1) would have a radius that is less than Earth's. So I guess that voids this question? with regards

Hmmm...I suppose I can go onto the next question now (we all seem to be making up the rules as we go anyway).
