It's much too far away. One of earths space shuttles would take many millions of years to reach it. If we could reach light speed, it would still take 5000 years. If you mean how close before we would fry, that's a difficult one. Bearing in mind that our own sun can burn us from 93 million miles, and V Y Canis Majoris is 7 billion times the size of our own sun, it would be massive distance but I can't give you a figure.
