SP77 46-44 (WOH S341) is a red supergiant star found in the Large Magellanic Cloud in the constellation of Dorado. It is one of the largest stars discovered, with a radius over 1,200 solar radii. If placed in the Solar System, its photosphere would engulf the orbit of Jupiter.
The apparent magnitude of SP77 46-44 varies by about 0.8 magnitudes around 11.5.[3] No variable star classification has been assigned.[10]
