Yep, those exist. There are quite a few out there and are rather noticeable from the GalMap. Here's my biggest find:

Now that is what I really want to see! A blue super giant or hyper giant! That is what I was originally setting out to see on this exploration trip: HD 7583 - blue hypergiant. Maybe I will come across one in the future?

Take a look at LYSOOF AA-A H1
Enjoy the warm summers and the overall blue shade of everything.

Yeah gotta admit, my visit to Antares and the supergiant there, is one of the coolest events I've experienced in ED to date. Right behind finding the Black Hole in the Maia system with just a Basic Discovery Scanner on my first exploration trip. Nothing like fuel scooping (surfing) the star 1000ls out at 30+C

Made me smile for hours.
