Gas giant it has the right temperature. Gas giant A gas giant is a giant planet composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. Gas giants are sometimes known as failed stars because they contain the same basic elements as a star. Jupiter and Saturn are the gas giants of the Solar System. The term "gas giant" was originally synonymous with "giant planet", but in the 1990s it became known that Uranus and Neptune are really a distinct class of giant planet, being composed mainly of heavier volatile substances (which are referred to as "ices").

Red supergiant star than a hotter supergiant. For example, Alpha Herculis is classified as a giant star with a radius of while Epsilon Pegasi is a K2 supergiant of only . Although red supergiants are much cooler than the Sun, they are so much larger that they are highly luminous, typically . There is an upper limit to the luminosity of a red supergiant at around . Stars above this luminosity would be too unstable and simply don't form. Red supergiants have masses between about and . Main-sequence stars more massive than about do not expand and cool to become red supergiants. Red
