  • VY Canis Majoris is still the largest star known, in size; it is 1800-2100 times larger than the Sun. "Em1365 A1" just has a lot more mass.

  • @Poleschs According to the report from ESO, it has 265 times the mass of our own sun, wich is more then VY Cansis Majoris. VY Cansis is only biger in volume.

  • Size/large relates to the visual and physical volume, not the mass.
