Lyrics:
I am UY Scuti
The largest star in our galaxy
Find me in the night sky

I am UY Scuti
A Red Supergiant
In the Scutum Constellation am I

I was First cataloged
in 1860
by German astronomers at Bonn Observatory

I was named BD -12 5055
Until my second survey
I was found to be slightly more bright

That's when I was named UY Scuti
The 38th Variable Star of the Constellation Scutum, Am I

I'm the largest known star in the Milky Way galaxy
But because I'm so far from Earth You need a telescope to see me

I'm 30 Times the Sun's Mass But have a radius more than
Radius 1,700 Times Greater than the Earths Sun, I span

I am UY Scuti
The largest star in our galaxy
Find me in the night sky

I am UY Scuti
A Red Supergiant
In the Scutum Constellation am I

I am 9,500 Light Years away from your Earth
1 Light Year = 5.88 Trillion Miles for what that's worth

I'm known to be one of the most luminous stars
And I am a Red Supergiant
I hope you like me so far

I'm close to the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A*,
Galactic Centre which is the center of our galaxy

I'm so large if you replaced your sun with me
My Photosphere Would Span Past Jupiter's Orbit as you can see

I've begun to fuse Helium and continue to fuse Hydrogen
in the shell around my core based on models of Stellar Evolution

After fusing heavy elements, my core will begin to produce iron, disrupting
the balance of gravity and radiation in its core and resulting

In a core-collapse supernova which is expected in stars like me
Look for me in the night's sky within your galaxy
