UY Scuti (BD-12°5055) is a red supergiant star, located 5,900 light-years away in the constellation Scutum. It is also a pulsating variable star , with a maximum brightness of magnitude 8.29 and a minimum of magnitude 10.56, which is too dim for naked-eye visibility.
Stephenson 2 DFK 1, also known as RSGC2-01 [a] or St2-18, is a red supergiant (RSG) or possible extreme red hypergiant [2] (RHG) star in the constellation of Scutum.It lies near the open cluster Stephenson 2, which is located about 5.8 kiloparsecs (19,000 light-years) away from Earth in the Scutum–Centaurus Arm of the Milky Way galaxy, and is assumed to be one of a group of stars at a ...

Red supergiants (RSGs) are stars with a supergiant luminosity class (Yerkes class I) and a stellar classification K or M. [1] They are the largest stars in the universe in terms of volume, although they are not the most massive or luminous.

UY Scuti: 909 [23] L/T eff: Initially reported 1,708 R ☉, making it the largest star, a 2023 measurement put the radius at a smaller value of 909 R ☉ based on the multimessenger monitoring of supernovae. [23] NR Vulpeculae: 908 [23] – 923 +62 −50 [25] L/T eff: KU Andromedae (IRC +40004) 900 [56] – 1,044 [55] L/T eff: V774 Sagittarii ...
A hypergiant (luminosity class 0 or Ia +) is a very rare type of star that has an extremely high luminosity, mass, size and mass loss because of its extreme stellar winds.The term hypergiant is defined as luminosity class 0 (zero) in the MKK system.
