Antares is a red supergiant. It is approximately 800 times larger than our own Sun.

The Sun has a diameter of 1.392 million kilometers so Antares is approximately 1.113 billion kilometers. This means that about 512 million Suns would fit inside Antares.

Light would take about 1 hour to cover this distance.
