Not surprisingly, UY Scuti is classified as a hypergiant star â which is the classification which comes after supergiant and regular giant. Its size may make it the biggest, but it is not the most massive star (where the mass in massive stands for the amount of matter in the star).
The largest star that we know of is called VY Canis Majoris itâs a long way from Earth between 3,900 and 5,000 light years. Itâs so big if it was the Sun in our solar system its surface would extend past Jupiter. The French astronomer JÃ©rÃ´me Lalande is believed to be the person who discovered the star back in 1801.
