Beautiful. I love space.

[SakuraKira]

That's amazing! I love the flares on the last two :D.

[Solid Knight]

We all got shafted with this laughably small sun.

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

Small stars ftw!

The smaller the star, the longer it lives. The large starts last for a few hundred million years, the small stars live for tens of billions of years or more (depending on how small they are)

[Kerm]

Just incomprehensible.

Thanks for that.

[insomniac9]

wow, the flares on the last 2 look amazing

Sweet pic man!!

I'm glad our Sun is the 1 pixel star, if any of the other stars were as close to us as the Sun is we would all be dust, actually we wouldn't be here to begin with...

It is pretty crazy how these stars are so huge, and we think the Sun is sorta big

One of the commentors on the Kotaku article that posted this, linked to a pretty cool Youtube video.

[Neoauld]

I cant even imagine looking at something that big

[sundayx Veteran]

...and we think the Sun is sorta big

Hell I think an elephant is big.

[ThePitt]

too big... I cant see any image

[ViZioN]

There's a cool gif I found months ago that shows something similar:

Space is awesome :woot:

The picture and more so the video linked above gives you an idea of how incredibly big objects in the universe can be.

Like it says at the end of the video: 'No, you are not the centre of the universe.'

Amazing pic, thanks for sharing ^^

yeah, well, the giants are old stars.. so, size don't matter? lol ;D

That larger planet picture is better. However, I heard that larger suns produce less heat, so our sun might be one of the hottest in the solar system.

Yes, the sun is the hottest star in our solar system. Well done.

Quoting this for longevity.

[KiHu]

There we go.

[AltecXP]

I didn't know there was a star pronounced "beetle juice"

[tagerd0g]

Hmm... can't imagine the size of planets (let alone inhabitable) orbiting around those large suns. Can you imagine the size of a living beings (if they exist) around those suns?

[what]

I wish our sun was blue :(

[AtomSmasher]

I wish our sun was blue :(

Yea, I would love that too :(

[Eric Veteran]

Pretty neat... For some reason it immediately brought the old film "Powers of Ten" to mind...

Why are the other ones blue? Is it cold there? Or what?
