About: WOH G17

An Entity of Type: star, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

WOH G17 is a possible red supergiant (RSG) located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) or a Mira variable asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star in the constellation of Mensa. The star is often considered to be a foreground object; much closer than the LMC, probably in the Milky Way, and therefore is potentially much smaller and less luminous.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • WOH G17 is a possible red supergiant (RSG) located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) or a Mira variable asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star in the constellation of Mensa. The star is often considered to be a foreground object; much closer than the LMC, probably in the Milky Way, and therefore is potentially much smaller and less luminous. As a red supergiant, it would be one of the largest known stars, with a luminosity of 933,000 L☉ and temperature of 3,300 K implying a radius of about 2,955 solar radii (2.056×109 km; 13.74 au), which is somewhat on par with the largest red supergiants known. This would correspond to a volume 25.8 billion times bigger than the Sun. If placed at the center of the Solar system its photosphere would engulf the orbit of Saturn and reach to about 3/4 the distance to Uranus’s orbit. (en)
