From Wikipedia: "...between 1800 and 2100 solar radii..." Note that this means the radius is not known precisely.

Assuming 1800 solar radii. Also, the Sun has 109 times the radius (or diameter) of Earth. That results in this star having 1800 x 109 = about 200,000 times Earth's diameter. Take the cube of that, and you get a volume that is 7,500,000,000,000,000 (7.5 x 1015) times that of Earth. With the higher number (2100), you get 12,000,000,000,000,000 (12 x 1015).

A few other sources say it is closer to 11,666,192,832,000,000 Earths!

How close can people get to VY Canis Majoris?

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.


How many earth fit in the super giant star?

One of the largest stars known is YZ Canis Majoris.It is a Red Hypergiant star estimated to be up to 2,100 times the diameter of the Sun.This gives us a diameter of about 2,923,200,000 km and an area of 9,183,503,644.97 km2.The earths diameter is 12,742 km and this gives an area of 40,030.17 km2.This means that it would take 229,414.53 earths to make up the area of YZ Canis Majoris.
