Yes.
Our sun is in physical size considerably "smaller" than a great many stars. In most physics it is actually used as a measuring tool for other stars. That a star is 26 solar masses it means it's total mass is 26 times that of the sun.
Although too complex to explain here, a star with a different number of solar masses undergoes a different life-cycle than the one expected of our star, which is in it's main sequence.
The heaviest known star is
= HDE 269810 = The largest know star (space occupation) is:
= VV Cephei = But while the first one has a mass of up to 190 times the mass of the sun, the second one has only 20 times the mass. It's just a different density.
Our sun will most likely go from here to a red giant > White Dwarf, whereas the first star may go through many degenerative states and will probably cause a large supernova (Or hypernova dependent on scale) and then (theoretically) create a black hole.
The smallest known star
= AB Doradus = Which is a star in a system of 3, and has only 0.089 times the mass of the sun.
In answer, our star is a relatively small star.

Is canis majoris bigger than the solar ststem?
Canis Majoris is a constellation. VY Canis Majoris, the largest known star would fill the Solar System to the orbit of Saturn but would NOT fill the Solar System.
What planet is bigger then Betelgeuse?
No planet could ever come close to the size of Betelgeuse.
What is the name of a planet bigger than the sun?
There are no planets bigger than the sun. Even the largest planet Jupiter is only about 1% the size of the sun.
Is the sun bigger than solar system?
Our sun is not bigger than the solar system. The sun is a star, and it contains over 99.9% of the mass of the solar system, but the solar system is much bigger than the sun.
Is there any star bigger than star?
that question doesn't make sense. there are star that are one billion times bigger than our on solar system star, how ever bigger stars live a shorter life than smaller stars!
Is the earths moon bigger than the sun?
No! The Sun is the biggest star and thing in our solar system
What is bigger moon solar system meteorite comet star galaxy universe?
Obviously, the Universe is the biggest of that lot. Next biggest is "galaxy", then solar system, then star, then moon. A comet is usually bigger than a meteorite, but not always.
Is earth bigger than the solar system?
The solar system is much larger than the earth. I mean most planets are bigger than earth, that are in the solar system
IS Jupiter bigger than the solar system?
Erm, no. Sorry. The Sun is 99% of the solar system, in mass. So, judging from that, all the planets that orbit it are in teh solar system. And nothing is bigger than our solar system! (except for mabye another solar system, or like a galaxy, or like a really big star, or a super amazing planet, or lik.. Nevermind.)
Is Aaron bigger than the sun?

No. The sun is the only star in the solar system.
What is bigger the solar system or the sun?
The solar system includes the sun and all things orbiting it, so naturally the solar system is bigger than the sun.
