| Abstract | A recent M_v_ - uvby{β calibration for Galactic luminous F-G supergiants was used to estimate the distance to the Magellanic Clouds from F supergiants. The distance moduli 19.33+/-0.31 for the SMC and 18.19+/-0.22 for the LMC are found. The present limitations of using F-G supergiants as distance indicators are discussed. |
