Colossal star 22.07.2010.

Chile's Very Large Telescope has found a colossal star, 265 times the mass of the sun and 165,000 light years away.
There are other large stars within the Milky Way, 22,000 light years from the sun.
The Europen Extremely Large Telescope, to be completed in 2018 will be almost half the length of a football field and will gather 15 times as much light as those operating today.

Celebrities are as
dust compared to the biggest
star of the whole show.

Huge telescope and
stars put our nothingness in
perspective and light.
