      however, in high mass stars
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen-burning_process
      The oxygen-burning process is a set of nuclear fusion reactions that take place in massive stars that have used up the lighter elements in their cores. Oxygen-burning is preceded by the neon-burning process and succeeded by the silicon-burning process. As the neon-burning process ends, the core of the star contracts and heats until it reaches the ignition temperature for oxygen burning. Oxygen burning reactions are similar to those of carbon burning; however, they must occur at higher temperatures and densities due to the larger Coulomb barrier of oxygen. Oxygen in the core ignites in the temperature range of (1.5-2.6)×109 K[1] and in the density range of (2.6-6.7)×109 g/cm3.[2] The principal reactions are given below,[3][4] where the branching ratios assume that the deuteron channel is open (at high temperatures)

      Not quite. Depends on your definition of "
      seeing". With a regular optical telescope yes it's true. However, telescopes like the one in Chile (Very large telescope type) can use radiations (infrared and microwaves) to see even further.

    Do you think that someone made your house, even though you have never seen them? The house is the evidence of the builder. Same with this universe. It had a beginning, therefore it had to have a cause. And that cause, is God. This universe could not have created itself.
    So do you think God cares about how we live? If He has given us morality so that we have set up a system of law with courts and judges, how much more would the supreme ruler of the universe demand justice?
    Have you ever lied, stolen the smallest thing or thought a rude thought? If these were the things God would judge us by, would He find us innocent or guilty? The answer? Guilty. Sinning against an infinite authority figure brings infinite punishment. Hell.
    So how can we stop going to hell? Does doing good deeds take away our sins? If I get a speeding ticket in the morning, then do 5 good things, should the judge let me go free? No, the fine has to be paid.
    What about asking for forgiveness? If a criminal stands before a judge and says, I'm really sorry... Should the judge let him go free? No, because that would be a bad judge. If he forgave every criminal because he loved them, that would not be doing justice. Justice has to be paid. God is merciful, but not so at the expense of justice.
    The only way we can go to heaven is if someone pays our hell punishment for us. Jesus lived a perfect sinless life and then took all of God's wrath for our sins upon Himself on the cross. Since Jesus paid 100% of our sins, there is none left for us to pay. Our punishment has been paid and we get off free. Justice has been paid and Gods mercy has been
    upheld.
    Our good deeds don't save us. Nor do they contribute anything to our salvation. Jesus paid it all. Just acknowledge your sins, and accept this gift of Jesus Christ to go to
    heaven.
    To learn more about God. Read the Bible. It's available free online. Read the gospel of John first.

    In Holy Quran Surah Tariq - (Brightest Star)🌟
    Allah takes Oath of Mighty Star.
    Whenever Allah takes an oath in the Quran, what is to follow, is supposed to be something very significant.
    Here, in surah Tariq, Allah swears by the sky, and by At-Tariq. Tariq literally refers to something that comes at night.
    and here Allah specifies it to be a star. soem mufassireen say it refers to the biggest star in the universe which is many many times greater than even the sun.
    After the oath, Allah tells us there is is someone watching over us, every one of us.
    Allah Himself is taking care of us, each one of us, and has sent His angels for that purpose.
    Allah Himself is looking over whatever all of us are doing and He has placed angels that are recording it.
    So when the night comes, for some of us some days, hurtful memories and scary thoughts haunt us, anxiey takes over us, pain starts to numb us. Worry starts to eat us up. And while you're up late at night, studying for that exam thinking you're so screwed, remember He is taking care of you and your affairs. While you're up late at night doing that cumbersome project or assignment, and you feel so done. remember He is taking care of you helping you do all of it. When you're up crying over pain and injustice, and worrying over your life, remember who has all of it in His control. The one who controls the impeccable flawless systems of the worlds seen and unseen to us; who controls the planets and stars, the galaxies, the systems, we know and don't even know of, is the One taking care of this little you۔

      Stephenson 2-18 is the BIGGEST star (currently - it changes all the time as measurements are refined, and other starts are observed closely enough to guesstimate the size) known, not the brightest. Its Luminosity is estimated at only ~430k times the Sun's. R136a1 (Tarantula nebula in the LMC) is the most luminous star currently known, with an estimated Luminosity of ~6 million times that of the Sun, more than 10 times more luminous than Stephenson 2-18. Interestingly, to me at least, the 2nd most luminous star is only 5000AU - thats 0.08ly - away from R136a1, and is imaginatively known as R136a2.
