Dear Mr.Fredski,

It is Quite True.

But when compared to other stars, nearer to our sun, the distances and size is Paradoxically is VERY VERY HIGH. About 2 years back I have down loaded from a web link, where our Sun in the solar System to which we belong to is shown as a TINY DOT and the biggest one is 70,000 times LARGER IN SIZE and GRAVITATIONAL FORCE IS 450 TIMES more, to that of Our SUN, hence ESCAPE VELOCITY is ENORMOUSLY LARGE and the Longest Distance identified so far is 2,00,000 LIGHT YEARS. which is astonishing and paradoxical. Hence when compared to these matters, our solar System is TINY.

Only future developed science knowledge and future Astronomist alone may give some explanation how this system came in to being.

What do you mean by "the Longest Distance identified so far is 2,00,000 LIGHT YEARS"? That's roughly the average distance between galaxies.

"...biggest one is 70,000 times LARGER IN SIZE and GRAVITATIONAL FORCE IS 450 TIMES more, to that of Our SUN...."

.

That must be the largest one never found, because the largest on found so far is 45 times smaller than that at roughly 1500 solar masses.

.

Also, since gravitational force depends on distance and mass of some other object, without at least a reference to distance, claiming 450 Times more isn't very descriptive. Worth noting, if you were referring to the force that might be exerted by a similar mass on the surface of a large star as compared to the surface of our sun, the force would be much smaller on the surface of a hypergiant.
