@darksneaker2000 those largest stars are supergiants or hypergiants, in the last phase of their lives before exploding - they weren't nearly that big when they were young. i dont know how much bigger our sun will get right before it explodes, but its diameter will be a lot larger than it is now - maybe out to mercury's orbit or farther... anyone know exactly??

So VY Canis Majoris is technically about 5 times wider in diameter than our solar system? Pretty boss.. 'Nuff said
Ok with this video in mind, I need to ask a maybe stupid question. Is our sun among the smalest stars we know of or is it the same way around? On a scale in sice 1 to 10 where is our sun???

@darksneaker2000 As you can see from the video, there are some really big stars, but there aren't that many of them. Our star is pretty average in size when you start counting how many are larger and how many are smaller and how many are about the same size.

Why is your version of Sirius yellowish? Sirius is A-class.

@1RadicalOne We show it as primarily WHITE but we could have added more blue. We were focused on size more than spectral class.
