Did Betelguese Replicate Itself?

Ok, scratch the gamma  ray thing because I guess I have a "false memory " and my 10 year old links don't work anymore. 

But it still could go supernova and it's easy to find in the night sky .

I read that exact thing not long ago, likely during the 2019 show. Would be so damn cool to witness that in my lifetime, they said it would be bright enough to be visible during the day if I remember right?
