Blue Supergiant

An O-type star of extreme temperature, luminosity, mass, and volume. The supergiant star is sufficiently massive that it transitions smoothly from burning hydrogen to helium and onward. It is among the brightest candles, burning quickest and brightest before exploding as a supernova which may briefly outshine entire galaxies, bathing entire sectors in deadly radiation. The energies unleashed from the star's raging fusion heart erupt in powerful stellar winds that will strip the atmosphere from closely orbiting planets - and the hull from any starships that linger nearby. | ||
