    This new information results in this save being inaccurate. I will make an updated version when I have time to. I'm curently doing year 12 so I hve heaps of work to do, which means I will not be able to make the new save soon.

    VY Canis Majoris was already deduced in it's solar radii estimation, therefore becoming 5th place, 1st place becoming NML Cygni, 210 more solar radii than VY Canis Majoris.

    My own calculations are inaccurate, somehow... 3.063 billion = 3063000000. 900km/h to 7884000... km/y (x24 then x365), there it would take 3063000000 / 7884000 = 388 years to circle it once.
