    The supernova of Betelgeuse is the most anticipated celestial event. Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star in Orion. Astronomers are regularly monitoring the star. A recent research paper has revealed that the star's surface is boiling, creating an illusion of rapid rotation.

      It is being observed across many EM wavelengths, including the infrared. As a matter of fact, observations in the infrared during the dimming in 2019 (in the visible spectrum) remained steady, so the dimming wasn’t in the infrared, just the visible light part of the spectrum. If I remember, Hubble does have some capability in observing in 5he near infrared.

      Beetlejuice is a giant waste depository for toxic waste generated by the artificially created stars used to power the hyperloop slip stream gates to traverse the galaxy by exiting local space time and traveling outside the curvature of the 3rd dimension of our universe and local time flow is stopped while outside the confines of space time, in the foamy environment of the higs field where the multiverse can be observed and quantified, before you pop your gravity bubble and the graviton waves push you through the space time membrane , back into our own universe that we can exist in. Most universes in the multiverse lack the necessary constants and energy needed to support biological so called life. Were we to accidentally poke a hole into the wrong universe, we would evaporate into basic sub atomic particles and cease to exist. So if could give me a lift to Saturn, I can gather enough materials and deuterium from the wrings to build my own gravity slip stream to access the higs field and get back to my dimension hopefully without being pushed into the wrong universe again. I'm tired of the clown universe of evil and chaos. It was fun the first couple millennium, but its still the clown universe and I hate clowns. Get me the hell out of here. I also can make your interdimentional gravity drive operate more effectively and prevent accidental disentanglment and quantum evaporation and other types of interdimentional errors and potential fuckery that can cause unwanted non existence and cascading universal ripples and mergers with unstable universes like clown universe. So come pick me up, and then we can go back to the universe of order, harmony, and swarms of winged nympomaniac super model hookers and portable blow job maidens . You know , those hot chicks with no vocal chords and a desire to be naked every time they see a star ship land. Clown universe sucks and has none of the great stuff found in the orderly universe we were robbed from. Get me out of here

    I can already see the headlines if it goes nova in the near future: “Betelgeuse breaks physics”, when really, we had no idea what would really happen to begin with. This is why we need to be careful about using the word “theorize”, when colloquially we mean “speculate” or even “estimate”. Whatever happens, I would bet that it will completely surprise the science community.

    Back in November I recorded a super zoomed in video of Betelgeuse in an area with little to no light polution, in the video I acknowledge just how crazy bright it is and that it's flashing blue and red. You can even make out the bubbly effects in the video, I did not even think astronomers were studying Betelgeuse right now because the last thing NASA reported on it was that it dimmed significantly and went from being the 10th brightest star to the 20th something which was back in 2019, and now it's even brighter than it was when it was the 10th brightest star, so essentially I spotted and recorded Betelgeuse's bubbles AND the fact it got so much brighter - months before NASA even reported these things, and for that I am very proud of myself, as soon as I went inside home after making the recording, I tried as hard as I could to find any news about the stars current state but the latest studies on the star were in 2019 so I never was able to find any explanation...until now

Another interesting thing is if we count the exploded stars in our galaxy there are about 6000 years worth of dead stars.

    @lukedawg2787 24 дня назад

    Just tossing it out there but wouldn’t it be entirely possible that the reason this star dims the way it does could be planets that are still rotating around it but inside it’s up layers? I mean when the sun expands and swallows all the inner rocky planets, it’s still a slow process and the planets would take a considerable amount of time to burn up. The planets would still want to orbit around it.
    So if that were the case, then this dimming would be the same as if the planet were outside of it. What we might be seeing are cores of this star’s planets that are still orbiting the star. They are just orbiting the star within its outer layers and when they get on the side facing earth it cause the star to dim.

    The models of supernova's show that a star has to go through this boiling bubbling process first before it can explode. The models just don't work to produce a supernova without this happening. Doesn't mean the models are right but that is what they show. There is still a very small risk of a gamma ray burst from a Betelgeuse supernova despite being 650 light years away. It is almost certainly not big enough to produce a gamma ray burst and its explosion poles would have to be pointed directly at Earth but there is still a one in a billion risk. You would have to be in a concrete type basement for a few hours to escape this risk and everyone in your hemisphere would be dead on the streets anyway if it happened and there would be no electronic equipment left intact (including your car and your phone and electricity) so don't worry about it. You don't want to live through a gamma ray burst.

    • @shadowfighter8861

      If a gamma ray dangerous enough to kill everyone on a hemisphere hit earth, being in a basement wouldn't save you.
