3. Betelgeuse
Betelgeuse - the ninth-brightest star in the night sky and second-brightest in the constellation of Orion.
The star is classified as a red supergiant
one of the largest and most luminous observable stars.
If Betelgeuse were at the center of the Solar System, its surface would extend past the asteroid belt, possibly to the orbit of Jupiter and beyond, wholly engulfing Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Estimates of its mass are poorly constrained, but range from 5 to 30 times that of the Sun. Its distance from Earth was estimated in 2008 at 640 light-years
