Grossly misleading image

[edit]

The size of the hypergiant is exaggerated around three times compared to the planetary orbits and the scale at the bottom. It is actually around the size of the orbit of Mercury. Lithopsian (talk) 12:59, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Plagiarised text

[edit]

One paragraph of the article was copied exactly from the linked source, with no attribution. In any case, the following paragraph is also a direct quotation, and having half the article just blindly copied is perhaps a bit beyond fair use. I've commented it for now, as the information might be useful if reworded. Probably best to go to the original journal paper, already referenced, rather than the often-misleading (eg. the description of the mass looks way off to me) and hyped blog/PR pages.
