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.
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.
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 is truly the king of stars, with candidates including PZ Cassiopeiae, VV Cephei A, VY Canis Majoris, KY Cygni, Westerlund 1-26, WOH G64, and NML Cygni. Nobody know who really is the largest star though, but it is best to say UY Scuti is the one. --Joey P. - THE OFFICIAL (Visit/Talk/Contribs) 05:58, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
Then that would be better suited to be the lower range of the estimate, which works as well as what is done in UY Scuti, which retains the 1,708 R ☉ value while the list considers the smaller, 825 R ☉. We can do the same in order to lessen the push for DFK 1 on the radius of 2,150 R ☉. SkyFlubbler 23:05, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
