yeah...

edit: to put it in perspective, "The star is so immense that if the Earth were the size of a 20 cm (8 in) diameter beach ball, the diameter of Jupiter would be about 2.1 m (7 ft), the Sun would be about 22 m (73 ft) in diameter (around the height of a 7-story office building), while UY Scuti would have a diameter of 38,000 m (125,000 ft), over four times the height of Mount Everest"
