Guide to Space - What is the Biggest Star in the Universe?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtSNDjDw6fI From May 13, 2013. In this short explainer video, Universe Today's publisher Fraser Cain researches what is the biggest star in the Universe, as well as the most massive star, and explores the limits that stars can reach.   Based on this article in Universe Today https://www.universetoday.com/13507/what-is-the-biggest-star-in-the-universe/   My six-year old daughter is a question-asking machine. We were driving home from school a couple of days ago, and she was grilling me about the nature of the Universe. One of her zingers was, “What’s the Biggest Star in the Universe”? I had an easy answer. “The Universe is a big place,” I said, “and there’s no way we can possibly know what the biggest star is”. But that’s not a real answer.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
