Step 1
1 of 2

Evidences should be complied for a very long time and it must undergo several peer revies before the distant stars can be assumed to have that characteristics. In ancient times, they made use of luminosity to determine its brightness and temperature. In modern times, they have powerful telescopes that are helpful in determining the size and distance of stars. All of these are purely computational evidences.
