We started today's class by perusing some images illustrating how different in size stars can be. We tend to think of our Sun as being a typical star. In fact, after watching two short videos that showed the progression in size from asteroids through the main planets to our Sun, and from there to red giants and supergiants and finally hypergiants it becomes clear that the Sun is, in fact, tiny compared to some of the behemoths out there. And yet, they're all stars! We finished class by printing out some images of the better-known larger stars and are in the process of identifying where they are in our night sky.
