So, where is this blue giant in relation to us?

That is just an artist’s rendering, depicting what a typical supergiant blue star would look like and how it’s size compares to our solar system. These things are scattered throughout the galaxy. IIRC, one or two of them are close enough to Earth to pose a danger when they eventually go supernova.
