No. Antares is 883 times the diameter of the sun, which makes it one of the largest stars by the amount of space it takes up. But, Antares is only 15 times the weight of our sun. A star has to be somewhere around 100-300 times heavier to go hypernova. So while it's quite large, unfortunately (or fortunately since it is so close to Earth) it isn't dense enough to go hypernova.

The surface temperature of the star Antares is estimated to be around 3,500 to 3,600 degrees Celsius, or 6,300 to 6,500 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes it a relatively cool red supergiant star compared to other stars.
A binary system is a term referring to two objects (usually stars, but also planets, galaxies or asteroids) whose gravitational interaction causes them to orbit about a common centre of mass.Antares has a companion star (or binary star) called Antares B which is at a distance of approximately 550 AU from Antares A. (Neptune for comparison is only 30 AU from the Sun). This "companion" takes around 878 years to orbit Antares A.
Yes, Antares is larger than V382 Carinae. Antares is a red supergiant star, while V382 Carinae is a white hypergiant star. The size of a star is determined by its radius, and Antares has a larger radius compared to V382 Carinae.
Antares is a red supergiant star and not a constellation or an asterism.
Antares is a slow variable star. All stars are "thermal"
antares is one of the biggest star known.

A Hyper-Nova is one of the most energetic events we know about.
Antares (Alpha Scorpii) is a huge red hypergiant star, with a radius 800 times that of our own sun. There are some bigger stars though, such as Betelgeuse (1180 solar radii) and V354 Cephei (1520 solar radii), but the biggest known star is VY Canis Majoris, which is estimated to have a diameter between 1800 and 2100 times that of our own sun. If it were in the centre of our solar system its edges would almost reach the orbit of Saturn.

Yes, it is a red supergiant star.
Antares is an important star in the constellation of the Scorpion.
It appears red, as it is a red supergiant. red is the color of Antares star.... RED! it is a super giant
