HV 888

HV 888 (also known as WOH S140), is a red supergiant star in the Large Magellanic Cloud.[1] It is among the largest known stars. It has a solar radius from over 1,374 to 1,584 times that of the Sun.
It is one of the most luminous of its type. Its luminosity is nearly 300,000 to over 500,000 times that of the luminosity of our Sun.[2][3][4] The effective temperature is estimated to be around 3,500 K. If it was placed at the center of the Solar System, its photosphere would engulf the orbit of Jupiter and possibly even Saturn.
HV 888 is located in the constellation of Dorado with an apparent magnitude of 11.861,[5] It has a diameter of between 1,911,783,600[6] to 2,203,977,600 km.[7]
