I love the majesty of planets and stars. It would be superb to cruise past them in a sleek silver spaceship! Here's a comparison of some of the biggest ones including Aldebaran (as featured in Star Wars), peaking here with the mighty Antares (not WOTAN!). Our Sun is a tiny speck to the left. But Antares is a tiddler really - check out the very biggest of stars in the video clip at the the base of the blog. They're mind-blowingly massive and reigning supreme over them all is the hypergiant Canis Majoris, over 2000 times the size of our Sun! Enjoy.
