Did Betelguese Replicate Itself?
#1
Sharing, because I found this very interesting. It really got my, "What if.....", gears in full engagement.

It reminds me strongly that, there is so much that we just don't know.

Quote:Massive red supergiant star Betelgeuse is at the end of its life span, at least on cosmic timescales, but the gargantuan fireball is going out kicking and screaming.

Astronomers used NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and other observatories to determine that the senior star actually blew off part of its surface in 2019.

"We've never before seen a huge mass ejection of the surface of a star. We are left with something going on that we don't completely understand," Andrea Dupree, from the Harvard and Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, said in a statement. "It's a totally new phenomenon that we can observe directly and resolve surface details with Hubble. We're watching stellar evolution in real time."

For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.

Betelguese has been know for a long time that it could go supernova, maybe in our lifetime, maybe a million years from now with even a threat of life on Earth being destroyed by a gamma ray burst from it. 

I didn't watch the video yet, just going by memory from years ago researching it. 

I'll see if I can find my old links, in the mean time , don't say that name 3 times or a creepy version of Micheal Keaton might show up.

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?
