text: V602 Carinae is a red supergiant and variable star of spectral type M3 in the constellation Carina. It is considered to be one of largest known stars, being around 1,000 times larger than the Sun. In 2005, V602 Car was calculated to have a bolometric luminosity below 110,000 L☉ and a radius around 860 R☉ based on the assumption of an effective temperature of 3,550 K. A 2015 study derived a slightly higher bolometric luminosity of 138,000+66,000−45,000 L☉ based on the measured flux and an assumed
