The galactic map reads this system as a B0 IVA class star...a subgiant. However, it is in actuality a class B Hypergiant of greater than 100 solar masses and nearly 250 solar radii. It has an Herbig AE/BE in close proximity that is completely drowned out by the luminosity of the parent star. The system primary even dwarfs it's O class companion (source).
Here we see the companion Herbig which is just a speck (which is actually in the FOREGROUND) next to the parent star.
One truly begins to understand the scale of the hypergiant from a little over 8000 LS away (16 times the distance of the Earth to the Sun), when viewing it with its companion type O star...which is only a little over 400LS distant and still dwarfed. If you look very carefully you can just make out the Herbig in orbit around the parent:
