Linked from

The 12 pages that link to Red supergiant, each with the reason it gives.

• Red giantCompared with: Red supergiants are a massive-star counterpart, not simply ordinary red giants at greater size.

• BetelgeuseNarrower topic: Betelgeuse is a nearby example of this short-lived stellar phase.

• AntaresNarrower topic: Antares is a nearby example of this late stage in massive-star evolution.

• Circumstellar mediumRelated: Its powerful mass loss builds a substantial surrounding envelope.

• Luminous blue variableCompared with: Its cool, extended atmosphere contrasts with the hot, blue appearance of luminous blue variables.

• Blue supergiantCompared with: Some massive stars move between red and blue supergiant states as their outer layers change.

• SupergiantBroader topic: It is the best-known evolved supergiant state of many massive stars.

• Type II supernovaRelated: Many observed Type II progenitors are red supergiants with substantial hydrogen envelopes.

• HypergiantCompared with: Red supergiants can resemble red hypergiants, but hypergiants show stronger instability or mass loss.

• UY ScutiNarrower topic: UY Scuti belongs to this stellar class.

• Pi PuppisBroader topic: The primary component of Pi Puppis is a red supergiant.

• Yellow supergiantCompared with: It is a later-looking, cooler counterpart to yellow supergiants.
