KY Cygni is ’n rooisuperreus van spektraaltipe M3.5Ia in die sterrebeeld Swaan. Dit is een van die grootste sterre bekend, met ’n geraamde radius van 1 420 R (sonradiusse). Dit is ook een van die helderstes: sowat 300 000 of meer keer so helder as die Son. Dit is sowat 5 000 ligjare van die Aarde af.
