Hello!

Red giant stars have no explanation because they are not giant at all. They are much closer red dwarf stars in normal stages of metamorphosis/evolution. Common sense dictates that stars are bright because they are close. All objects that shine appear brighter and bigger when they are closer. Surprisingly scientists forget this basic fact of nature because they are conditioned in college to trust their math equations, not their intuition.

An actual method for the determination of genuine distance (not theoretical based on highly inaccurate parallax) is provided with reference.
