VY CMa averages about 8 billion times the volume of our own sun. Bear in mind that Sol's volume itself could hold a million Earths.
If this star was put where Sol current resides, it's diameter would extend beyond Jupiter's orbit.
It's impossible to even imagine. And there are many phenomenon in this universe that dwarf this.

Well, not really since you just imagined it extending beyond Jupiter's orbit....

It's impossible to even imagine. The universe is like trying to imagine a piece of string with only one end. It has been said it's not possible for humans to imagine the entire universe. We don't know where it ends, or for that matter where it begins.
