| Finally...at least a 2nd Place:
The Star is named RS-0-9-88679570-1-5-0-0-0 B and is a Red hypergiant (M1 0) found in the frontiers of some distant galaxy. He is 11.091 AU big. Here two pictures (both are actually the same pic,just one with and one without HUD):

| Quote Talisman ( ) I asked Space Engineer and he said 25 AU stars should be possible (Because it is in real life) but they might be very rare in the engine, or not generated at all.
I'm curious about this, as in all the time between that remark and now, nothing procedural much beyond 11.1 AU has actually been found. So, what degree of 'very rare' are we talking about ? One-per-million galaxies- rare ?
Or could it be the case that such stars do exist, but they are just not among the very brightest in any galaxy so they are much harder to find than the 'standard' Red/Blue hypergiant pairs that can be seen from great distances?
Or do they, indeed, not exist at all ?

I understand more about the universe, at 10, than others could in a lifetime. …and yet, there are days where tying my shoe is extremely difficult. I don’t mean to be annoying, I’m just a 10 year old with autism.
