What was the star of the weapon discovered by Hubble, but it is now a new discovery, called .... A1 114-times the mass of our sun, which is 1.988435 × 1030 kg. The bright star is fiercely part of a binary system, located in the center of a vast, dense star cluster NGC 3603, located 20,000 light years from Earth in the southern Milky Way. Her partner was weighed in an impressive 84 solar masses.
Read the full story below ..... Information since May 2007

NGC 3603 is a collection of stars in a star.

Health NASA, we have:

"Is the largest known star (in the sense of mass and brightness), the Pistol Star. Believed to 100 times more massive than our sun has to 10,000,000 times as bright! In 1990, a star named the Pistol Star was known mid-gun Nebula in the Milky Way. In 1995 it was suggested that the Pistol Star was so massive that the withdrawal from the organization, confirmed the gun Nebula created. Observations from the Hubble Space Telescope in 1997, the relationship between the star and the nebula. astronomer do not know how a massive star would have this form, or how he act in the future.

The Pistol Star and Nebula Images of Hubble Space Telescope and NICMOS taken. The star is the white in the center of the image field point.

The Pistol Star appears as the bright white dot in the middle of the picture shown above. The Hubble Space Telescope Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) was needed to capture the image,Since the star is located in the center of the galaxy behind a large amount of dust that covered. The NICMOS infrared vision "can penetrate the dust to reveal the star. The star has enough raw power to two shells of expanding gas blow (which is false, magenta), equivalent to several times the mass of our sun.'s Largest reservoir is so big (4 light-years), which covers almost all the way from the sun to the nearest star. eruptions created the deposits seen by Hubble is estimated that only 4000 to 6000 years, respectively. Despite the loss of mass of the star, where the material is ejected, the astronomers estimate the Pistol Star was back to 100 the mass of our sun, and begun with up to 200 mass of the sun! The star is 25,000 light years from Earth. Despite this distance, the star with would naked eye, except for all the dust between it and the earth. "

After the always useful navigate Astronomy> Ask a group of experts from Yahoo! Directory, we discovered that the largest known star is in relation to the mass and luminosity of the star's dramatic Gun. The Pistol Star is closer to the center of the Milky Way, we are, and not with the naked eye on galactic dust. It is approximately 100 times as large as our sun, and 10,000,000 times as bright burns.

It's called the Pistol Star, because he believes that the source is a huge fog or clouds of dust and gas. Latest images from the Hubble Space Telescope confirm this relationship. Originally, the weapon may have 200 to 250 times more massive than our sun has had before it "dismissed" the majority of their mass in the galaxy.

The brightest star visible in the night sky is Sirius in Canis Major, a constellation that represents one of the hunting dogs of Orion. The ancient astronomers have predicted a warmer climate, when Sirius appeared in the night sky, so that the "dog days" of summer.

In order to knowThere is the biggest stars in the universe, that it must look to the stars. We have not come to that - we have not even looked at all the stars in our galaxy. There are approximately 100 billion stars in our galaxy, and almost as many galaxies in the observable universe, so you could understand why.

The best thing I can do is tell you what the biggest star is known, but they must also know what you mean by most. We choose the brightest, or the largest volume, most massive () with more mass? The massive stars are generally less dense than take a proportionately larger. The solid is known, is widely recognized that the star of the weapon, which see a mass about 100-150 times the sun and is about 10 million times brighter (the photo). Over 100 shoes offer the same amount of things like the star, but who needs more than 100 suns, the value of the volume to the space it takes to fill.

NGC 3603, in the southern Milky Way is the largest known. Of course, there's more.

It is the largest mass times only by the way, 110-the mass of the sun.

This is the largest diameter:
VY Canis Majoris 1800-2110x (sol = 1)
VV Cephei 1600-1900x

It's either or W Cephei VY Canis Majoris, check out this video that shows the family size of our solar system, these monsters out there .....

W Cephei is 288,194-times the mass of our sun.
