  • what if VY Canis Majoris is our own star in the solar system and the Earth is sa big as the Sun

  • He said wind? I didnt think there was wind in space

  • @ancientswordfighters dont you know solar winds?

    

  • IT IS GOING TO EXPLODE IN A MILLION YEARS.the bigger the star,the less lifespan it has.our sun is going to die in estimated 5 billion years.so do not worry.god will make up a new life that will be much better when the time comes.

  • VY Canis Majoris Is considered to be the biggest known star until 2010,NASA has discovered a new massive star-R136a1.This Star Is a Blue Hypergiant,& it has a solar mass of more than 300,

    yet the solar mass limit of a star larger than the sun is 150,it seems it was doubled by R136a1.

    such exceed limits of 150 is very rare,yet only R136a1 got past a solar mass of 150.

    Please like if you already knew it.To say,  VY Canis Majoris < R136a1

    Thanks for putting likes! :D

  • @7781kathy i think your brain is as big as Einstein

    

  • VY Canis = Marshmellow. This star would literally tear right through the center of it. If they were orbiting each other Canis would be getting eaten.

  • R136a1 is a magnetar star, right?

  • It's funny how many want to point out that others have made the mistake of thinking that mass = volume with their quantized stats from Wikipedia while forgetting two main things: 1) Matter/Energy is spatially extended as a void of networked energy resonation. Describing things such as mass and volume in absolute terms to point out the mistake of others is kind of ironic considering the way we quantize is flawed and incomplete. 2) star size/mass measurements are approximations at very best.

  • @OctoberLifeImages so if you say nothing you are closer to the truth

  • @TheNessteea You are one of the smartest people I have ever met on youtube :) Absolutely true!

  • Pluto will be f*cked up if it meets this planet XD

  • An instrument called : A very large telescope.

    LOL!! 

  • Mass>Volume

  • very simple:

    The BIGGEST star is VY Canis Majoris.

    The star in this video, R136a1, is the MOST MASSIVE

    another way to put it

    VY Canis Majoris is like a big orange yoga ball. Huge but not very dense

    ...R136a1 is like a blue shot put. Small but a lot of mass (it's heavy)

    thumbs down cause this video combined the two.

  • This star will rip the galaxy its in apart surely.

  • Wow, the ignorance on display here, about a concept as simple as Mass, it's just shocking.

    Learn some basic science people. It will help you come across as less retarded when commenting on youtube, and in real life as well.

  • @FurbolgFrenzy10 The fail is YOURS buddy, for not understanding Indian decimal mark notation. Here's a quote from wikipedia on the matter to help you understand...

    "In India, due to a numeral system using lakhs (lacs) (1,00,000 equal to 100 000) and crores (1,00,00,000 equal to 10 000 000), comma is used at levels of thousand, lakh and crore, for example, 10 million (1 crore) would be written as 1,00,00,000."

    This Indian reporter CORRECTLY says 1,65,000 where Americans would say 165,000.

  • that star looks small to vy canis majoris don't care about that star because vy canis majoris will make the BIGGEAST SUPER NOVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @blueseablueberry No. The energy released by a nova is dictated by the mass of the object. The more massive, the greater the release.

    Simply put, this star will produce a nova 8 times as "big" as VY Canis Majoris, because it has 8 times as much mass.

    You already understand this concept, even if you don't realize it. Everybody knows, a balloon filled with helium might be large in diameter, but a balloon the same size filled with water has MUCH more mass.

  • @azdgariarada thats a great way to explain it, canis is consuming its matter rather quickly releases in 6 seconds as much energy as our sun does in 1 year, wich is alot. its size is exactly due to the fact it cant hold its matter together or some say so. it wont produce as much heat as R136a1. tho it will go hypernova releasing much more energy than a supernova

    i still find both canis and R136a1 extremely fascinating. starting to wonder what kind of enviroment we would have if our sun was blue

  • :D i don't even frequently watch tv news i just base news here.... mehehe:D

  • Hope this is a joke; Giant star ? it sure is not ! - most heavy star discorvered it sure is not ! - And the best thing about it the star is 1 million years old he says HAHAHAHA then it would still just be a cloud of dust, and they say the star dies in 1 million years hihi, so the star has a life spand of 2 mil years OKAY IF YOU SAY SO :)

  • gotta love you tube physicists.. you all repeat the same rubbish thats been set in place for us all to read.. you are not smart or uber intelligent & by taking up the same stuff someone else found out makes you out to be a bit of a carrier pigeon.

    let the real physicists do as they do & stop replicating them like f***ing faded shadows!

  • @subtalkformer

    carrier pigeons have their place, It is better to be informed than not. A person can NEVER have too much knowledge. I am no physicist, Actually I am a cleaner.. but that never prevents me from learning, and from passing on that knowledge. How do you think mothers inform their children, or teachers their pupils? All I would say, is be aware that not everything people say on youtube is necessarily correct or up to date.

  • @kittysparkleeyes yes carrier pigeons do hav i a place i agree.. picking bits of food off the floor being scavengers that don't know nothing about physics. no one is saying don't get informed & educate yourself

    but unless you have the credibility & quantification's in this field of study there is no point in spreading second hand information.

  • @kittysparkleeyes Just to add... Knowledge is something you share when it's necessary.. parents & tutors have the experience this is why words & actions from them deemed credible, Myself being a BSW (Behavior.Support.Worker) by trade & a parent i know this only too well! A carrier pigeon does not have these rights hence the tag.

  • VY Canis Majoris is the largest in terms of VOLUME.

    R136a1 is the largest in terms of MASS.

    Therefore VY Canis Majoris is the LARGEST in terms of VOLUME and R136a1 is the LARGEST in terms of MASS.

  • Guys, listen, I know 90% of you think that VY Canis Majoris is the most "massive", but it isn't. Canis Majoris is the one with the most VOLUME, not MASS. If R136a1 was a RED hypergiant, it would be MUCH MORE larger than Canis Majoris.

    Mass and volume are different things. Do not get them confused. here's an example:

    You have 100 paper balls all on top of each other, and I have 1 ball of led the size of a soccer ball. Even though 100 paperballs seems larger, the ball of led has much more mass.

  • This star is just the most massive star known and most luminous one out there. Discovered 2010. Don't go thinking oh this video is wrong because at no point do they say its the largest star found. There is a difference. Comment all you want I've learnt the same way as everyone else has.....on the internet :p

  • This is nothing! A million and middle aged? Ours is billions of years old and it still has billions to go!

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 vy canis majoris is only 30times the mass of our sun, it is just at the end of its lifespan in the "red giant phase" which is why it has its gigantic diameter. In terms of mass, this star is aroudn 10 times more massive than vy canis majoris. Anyway, I think this video is really inaccurate, this star is not even in our galaxy, even if it was twice as close it's rays could not harm us

  • @kittysparkleeyes actually, no. VY Canis Majoris is 4 billion KM in diameter. This star is bigger than earth, but smaller than VY Canis Majoris

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 more than that

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 Mass... not size Mr. ClubPenguin

  • Comment removed

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 NOBODY SAIED THAY R136A1 IS THE  BIGGET STAR KNOW D:<

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 R136a1 is much more massive you moron :D

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 yep you know it bro that dam thing is insainly huge....like holy fucking wow!!

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 Fail... VY CMa is 59 times bigger, don't even care to argue, I made the Wikipedia-pages that you got your intelligence from, so...

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 No its not, R136a1 has a diameter of around 47,816,000 Kilometers and VY Canis Majoris diameter of around 2,921,100,000 Kilometers

    so R136a1 is bigger than VY Canis Majoris, and VY Canis Majoris is the largest star known and R136a1 is the massive star known. Do not reply that I'm faking because I'm never faking R136a1 is massive than VY Canis Majoris.

  • @katie89065 I know its more MASSIVE, in MASS, but not in SIZE

  • @katie89065 LOL So your trying to say that R136a1 Is larger then VY Canis Majoris??? I hope your kidding... R136a1 is 300 times the size of are sun while VY Canis Majoris is almost 2000 times larger... Know what you are talking about, If a commercial airlines moving at around 900kph or 560mph around the surface of VY Canis Majoris it would take 1100 years to cirlce it 1 time.... Think about that...

  • @Breze84 Mass matters not size.

    VY Canis Majoris is 1000 times less dense than air

  • @SuperThe86 Yes in Mass "Weight" It is heavier but not in sheer size.... VY Canis Majoris is still the biggest star in the universe in size, Our sun in comparisson looks like a grain of sand next to a basketball....

  • @Breze84 "Our sun in comparisson looks like a grain of sand next to a basketball"

    More Likely like a grain of sand next to a baloon filled with helium

  • @katie89065 Now if your just saying that R136a1 is heavier in comparisson you are correct but in sheer size VY Canis Majoris dwarfs it...

  • @ClubPenguinMovies123 well, in terms of diameter, i would say you're right. but VY is 1 billion times larger than the sun in terms of volume

  • when was this made 35bc? because there are much bigger stars than this now discovered fuck tard :L

  • Our sun is going to be around a lot longer than a million years.

  • Wait, what? How can this star explodeif it's only 6,000 years old? And how can the sun be roughly 5 billion years older then it is?

  • @ApertureScienceLabs The bigger the star, the faster it dies.

    Smaller stars burn their energy slower than bigger stars. Our sun is a medium sized star that they believe will last 10 billion years, and is already about 5 billion years old. This means it will die in roughly 5 more billion years.

  • @xxTigersnakexx that, in no way, answered my question.

  • @ApertureScienceLabs At least you learned something.

  • @xxTigersnakexx yes: Never ask questions on YouTube videos.

  • @ApertureScienceLabs Well, if your question made sense, I'd answer it correctly.

  • @xxTigersnakexx it made sense to me.

  • @ApertureScienceLabs "How can this star explode if it's only 6,00 years old? And how can the sun be roughly 5 billion years older than it is?"

    Well, I honestly don't see a valid question in this.

  • @xxTigersnakexx simple: Implying that the sun is 5 billion years old is illogical. Implying that it will explode in 5 billion years also implies that logic is no longer a part of the human world.

  • @ApertureScienceLabs How about you ask a professional before assuming that we are all idiots and can't tell things about stars.

    Obviously these astronomers are smarter than everyone here.

  • @xxTigersnakexx i did. He just said "What is is what is."

  • @ApertureScienceLabs Well he's obviously not a professional. xD

  • @xxTigersnakexx he didn't even know how far light traveled in one second, come to think of it.

  • Most of these astronomers just make this shit up, "Yeah we've found another star .... no this ones even bigger! .... More funding please!" 2 years later, "You'll never guess what ..... Yep ... this ones even bigger again!"

  • I don't think you put a comma after 1...... 0:26

  • this is full of shit!.

    armature astronomers do not give up your day jobs!!!!

  • the 'a1' part sounds familiar. I am sure this was mentioned in the 'largest things' documentary of the universe, on history channel. But it only mentioned the a1 part and that it had a companion star

  • @17jun1989 They are only guessing...theres no way in hell they could know for sure how heavy it is

  • @Gushanni You definitely got my vote

  • we see stars die, but we never see stars actually forming.

  • That man shouldn't be reporting science. He used incorrect language to describe this entire segment.

  • Everyone seems to be getting mass and diameter confused here.

    VY Canis Majoris has a Solar Mass of around 30 - 40 and R136a1 coming it at 265 - 320.

    VY Canis Majoris has diameter of around 2,921,100,000 Kilometers and R136a1 a diameter of 47,816,000 Kilometers

    With all the mass of R136a1, when it pops, it will be one big hypernova

  • @supafly1983 actually vy canis majoris is 3,063,500,000 km but the rest was right lol

  • @supafly1983 or terranova lol

  • @supafly1983 sriously? a star with a volume almost a billion times that of our sun has a mass of only 30-40 times our sun's mass? that's astounding!

  • @supafly1983 can you say holy shit?

  • Vy canis majoris is bigger.

  • @YamiPoyo R136a1 is much massive than VY canis majoris

  • @TheNogeman r136a1 was more small than pollux or arcturus , u r crazy

  • @tururuanthony r136a1 was bigger than arcturus his diamer is 41.300.000 km

  • @TheNogeman r136a1 is 265 suns but VY CANIS MAJORIS is 9 billion suns

  • In fact, R136a1 could be our sun and none of our planets would be engulfed, but the truth is that life would be impossible due to the very high temperature on the surface of that star.

    Greetings from Madrid, Spain.

  • @Luisda1984 Gravity*

  • @Burnz2much

    I agree with you, I was only considering the volume of the star, but you are right: planets would need a much greater orbit speed in order not to fall into the star.

  • Mass does not mean Diameter!!! So this comment is for the string of fuckin dumb asses that are going hit this post with 'uh VY CANIS MAJORIS,VV CEPHEI and MU CEPHEI are way bigger. This star R136a1 is far more Massive in density(weight) while the other 3 mentioned are Gigantic in Diameter (size).
