π EARTH IS TINY. REALLY TINY. π€―
We live on a planet about 12,742 km wide.
Our Sun? βοΈ
β‘οΈ About 109 Earths wide.
But some stars make the Sun look like a tiny dot. π³
π₯ UY Scuti, one of the largest known stars, has been estimated at around 2.4 BILLION km across.

π The Milky Way contains hundreds of billions of stars.
π€― And the observable universe is roughly 93 billion light-years across.

The deeper we look, the smaller we realize we are. ππ
Which scale shocked you the most β Earth β Sun, or Sun β giant stars? π
