		In 2005, using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers determined Sirius B to be 12,000km (7,500 miles) in diameter, with a mass that is 98% of the Sun.
		Sirius was worshipped as Sothis in the valley of the Nile long before Rome was founded, and many ancient Egyptian temples were oriented so that light from the star could penetrate to their inner altars.
		Sirius was commonly thought to cause madness in 18th century England, and is alluded to in John Dryden's religious and political satire Absalom and Achitophel, in the context of showing that it would plainly be mad to think that Charles II should "displease" the English people (LL.333-334).
