V437 Scuti

V437 Scuti is a red supergiant star in the constellation of Scutum. If you placed it in the Solar System, It would munch up Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and dwarf planet Ceres. This makes it comparable to the size of Betelgeuse, Antares, and V382 Carinae. It is not likely that it has planets, but there is a small chance that it may be a binary star. But this star Is huge, man! (That’s a joke!) V437 Scuti was included in Ramesh Singh’s Star size comparison.


Not to be confused with:
