What If Earth Orbited UY Scuti? #Shorts

It's the largest star that we've ever discovered. And if it were to replace our Sun, it would change a lot more than just the amount of sunscreen you'd have to put on. Like, how long would it take for our planet to orbit this massive star? What would that do to our seasons? And would we even survive a single orbit?

I thought Stephenson-218 was the biggest known star

People who hates winter would live the happiest life.

when UY Scuti dies, it will have the explosion force of exactly 1 super nova

the definition of a super nova is "a star that suddenly increases greatly in brightness because of a catastrophic explosion that ejects most of its mass." unless it's more than 1 star exploding and the supernovas combine, it will always be 1 supernova per star

If we was able to live around a star like that we’d probably be immortal or jus have a life expectancy of 800, 000 yrs which is pretty cool to think about
