Mu Cephei, also known as Herschel's Garnet Star, is a red supergiant star. It is one of the largest stars known at around 1650 times the radius of our own sun, around 1.1 billion km.
If placed in our solar system, its surface would extend out past Jupiter's orbit and almost to Saturn's orbit.
Its around 1900 light years away, while it is also coming to the end of its life. there is a good chance that it has actually gone through a supernova explosion by now.

When will Mu Cephei die?
Mu Cephei, for all you uneducated people, is the 3rd largest star in the the universe, or that we know of. It is nearing death right now as you read this. it probably has only a few more 1000 years to live. Mu Cephei is a super giant star, so it is to big to explode into a supernova. It will probably explode into a hypernova, which is bigger than a supernova, or possibly into a meganova, which is bigger than a hypernova.
How big is MU Cephei?
mu cephei is a red super giant star also known As Herschel's garnet star in the cepheus constellation . It's bigger than betelgeuse and smaller than vy cephei having approximately 1650 times Larger than our sun's solar radius . ( one solar radius is equal to the 6.955 into 10 raise to power 8 meter )
Astronomy.what is the name of the third largest star?
In terms of diameter 'VV Cephei A' probably holds this position.
Is the the sun the biggest?
The Sun is the largest object in our solar system, but in comparison to other stars, no - our Sun is a relatively small star. There are countless stars that are far larger. Look into Betelgeuse, Mu Cephei, VV Cephei A, and VY Canis Majoris - to name a few.
Which star is bigger VV Cephei A or VY Canis Majoris?
VY Canis Majoris is probably bigger. VV Cephei A is between 800 and 950 times the diameter of our sun. VY Canis Majoris is 900 to 1050 times the diameter of our sun. As you can see, there is some overlap in the numbers, so it is possible VV Cephei A is actually the larger star, though more likely VY Canis Majoris is the biggest.Also if u see a video of biggest star it is shown that VV cephei A is actually smaller than Vy canis majoris
