biggest star in the solar system
1 VY Canis Majoris is the largest known star in our galaxy, if this star was in the center of our solar system its outer atmosphere would reach the orbit of Saturn. 2  One of the smallest known stars in our galaxy is VB 10, it is only around 20% larger than Jupiter.
How about size. I think we first need to get a sense of size so we can really understand how big this star is. Our Sun is 870,000 miles across (or 1.4 million km). We could probaly fit the Earth inside the Sun 1 million times. The biggest star VY Canis Majoris is so big the Sun would fit inside this about 2100 times. Traveling. If you where to fly a plane around the world it would take about 40-50 hours (depending on fuel stops etc). Now, if you where to fly around the biggest star itâs believed it could take 1100 years!!
