it depends some stars are huge,10x the sun, and some are puny, smaller or about the same as the moon
A star is MUCH larger than a moon.
Stars are much much bigger than the moon. They only appear to be smaller because they are so far away as compared to the moon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A star is a gigantic celestial body of hot gas that radiates energy derived from thermonuclear reactions in the interior. The moon appears bigger because it is so much closer to us than the stars. The sun is also considered as a star.
Our local star, the SUN, is very much bigger than the Moon. In fact all the total masses of all the planets and satellites, would fit easily inside the SUN, with space in the Sun remaining. Our Sun , is a very ordindary Star both by size and mass compared to other stars. Other stars appear to be so small, is because they are so far away (many light years).
The moon is bigger than most stars as seen from Earth, but it is much smaller than the majority of stars in the universe. Stars vary greatly in size, with some being hundreds or even thousands of times larger than the moon.
because stars are further away than the moon so that way the moon looks bigger

No! The Sun is the biggest star and thing in our solar system

The moon is much closer to Earth than any other star, which makes it appear larger in the sky. Stars are actually much larger than the moon, but their distance from Earth makes them appear as tiny points of light in the night sky.
In order of size from largest to smallest Universe, Galaxy , Solar System , Star (Sun), Comet, Meteorite.
Moon illusion is when the moon seems bigger when it is rising. So really the moon is not bigger it is in the mind.
Correct. The moon appears larger than the stars because it is much closer to us.
Because it is the closest star to us. This is the same reason that a quarter looks larger than the moon if you hold it up. The quarter is much closer to you than the moon, so it looks bigger, but it is not really bigger than the moon.
Earth, by far.
