Answer:

It's intrinsic luminosity and relative closeness to our Solar System.

Explanation:

The Sirius system is only 2.64 parsecs (8.6 ly) making it one of Earth's closest neighbors. Sirius is gradually moving closer to our Solar System which means that over the next 60,000 years, it'll be getting brighter.
