Sirius and the moon seen from earth

Here is Sirius and the moon seen from earth. I know that it is Sirius because this is the brightest star on the night sky. Sirius is next to Orion and next to two other big stars called Betelgeuze and Rigel. Sirius is about 5 to 10 times bigger than our sun.

It's not 5 to 10 times bigger than the sun, did you just make that up?? It'a 2-3 times bigger than the sun.

Sirius is behind Orion, and you can't see it before dark!

TIP: If the object is flashing, it is a star. If the object is not flashing, you´re seeing a planet. Period.

In mass and diameter, it is about 2.5 times that of our sun, but its volume is 12 times that of the sun. "bigger" simply isn't specific enough.

Actually, it is 10 times bigger than the sun, it states in other videos,
