In astronomy, the term 'giant' applies to stars like Betelgeuse, a red supergiant in the Orion constellation that's over 600 times the diameter of our Sun and could theoretically engulf planets up to Mars if it replaced the Sun in our solar system—making it a cosmic behemoth that might go supernova in the next 100,000 years.
