Oh how fun. The plethora of the "YOUR MOTHER" jokes.
Everything aside, Igorgames has your resolution to your question.
Likewise, trivial questions such as this one can be resolved with google. No need to make threads such as this.
Everything aside, Igorgames has your resolution to your question.
IgorgamesThe planet, dubbed HAT-P-1, is located some 450 light-years from Earth in the constellation Lacerta.
It is the largest planet ever discovered and boasts a radius nearly 1.4 times larger than Jupiter's.
HAT-P-1 is also the least dense of all known planets.
"This planet is about one quarter the density of water," said Gaspar Bakos, a Hubble fellow at CfA.
"In other words, it's lighter than a giant ball of cork. Just like Saturn, it would float in a bathtub if you could find a tub big enough to hold it, but it would float almost three times higher."
Unlike more familiar gas giants, including those in our solar system, HAT-P-1 does not appear to have a solid core.

Is this an actual question? It can't really be discussed, there's only one answer and several people have already said it. Google is a fantastic resource for you to use, for future reference.

The Biggest Planet is , wait for it.. PLANET MINECRAFT

red belteguese if thats how u spell it...

its 1 million times bigger than our sun

shit gurl
WUT?
damn man you up and dropped some science
respect[/quote]
Is that a compliment? Sorry I don't understand your English.[/quote]
yeah man totally
that was god damn smart[/quote]
Thanks, and also, the actual size of the universe is (10^26 meters)³, just lettein you know

I believe this is why google was invented...
1
Not entirely sure if it still is, but at one time TrES-4 was the largest.

XaverinnWizWorksyeah but that is WAY too many planets to account for in a question like this, so obviously the answer should be the biggest KNOWN planet. too find the largest planet in the entire universe would be impossible, given the universe is infinite and ever expanding, so once you found a "largest" there would be another one in the near future. it's really an un-answerable questionThe universe is not infinite, and the expansion theory is not proven, although, yeah many people actually think the universe is expanding. Also, if the universe was infinite, it would start cloning itself and we would have multiple ourselves. The universe would duplicate itself every Googol Plex (thats a googol raised to a googol) miles.
You said: so once you found a "largest" there WOULD be another one.
I change the WOULD to COULD.
Sorry if you didn't understand shit.

actually i was wrong, the largest known planet is TRES4 which is 70% larger than jupiter.
1
Guys , it is not Jupiter , that is in our solar system. their are BILLIONS of planets. they predict there are at least 2 planets for each star. Jupitier is tiny compared to other planets out there. Yes , it is the biggest in out solar system , but that is not what he means , there is a difference -_-

wvell the biggest star is VY Canis Majoris
1
Why you didn't google this I don't know..
1
I'm sorry but you are looking for GOOGLE! Not planet minecraft.
1
Thought it was Antares and Betelguesse, spelt both wrong probably
1
Actually,I remember somewhere, that the biggest possible size of minecraft could be the size of jupiter, considering that 1 block=1 meter
1
Actually, Minecraft is the size of Neptune, not Jupiter.
1
we found some large exoplanets, right below the brown dwarf threshold. basically just a smidge to small to be a burning star, but 16x larger than jupiter
1
Biggest planet is Tatooine
1
biggest planet hmm idk pluto?
1
Winner.
1
Oh and VY Canis Majoris has a radius 2094 bigger than the Sun.
1
Why the hell couldn't you just google it.
1
HAT-P-1 is nearly 1.4 times larger than Jupiter. I Googled it
1
Minecraft is only 60 million blocks wide. or 7 times earth.

Planet MInecraft!

We have a paltry amount of planet discoveries in relation to star discoveries; there's one article here:
http://www.space.com/18522-super-jupite ... photo.html
Which has a planet 13x the size of Jupiter. There's likely more in the realm of "Brown dwarf" failed stares.

Minecraft! It's infinite.
1
Well, its not actually infinite, its just very large and would take a very long time to travel to the end of the overworld.
1
Minecraft is 8 times as large as earth, but with all the..... oh lemme get to the point!
End result: Minecraft is 1.8 times as big as EARTH!

You've got that right

Theoretical infinite...

Planet Minecraft
1
i get it and I agree.
also... the planet that minecraft is on is obviously the biggest because its infinite!

This.

Do you mean stars or planets? There is a large difference
The largest star we know of is NML Cygni. (I thought it was different but I just looked it up)
The largest planet is HAT-P-1, I believe.
