Since our sun ejects material into the solar system, so could Betelgeuse, but on a different scale. NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope appeared to confirm that a “burp” from within Betelguse ...

To give a sense of scale, if Betelgeuse were placed at the center of our solar system, its surface would extend beyond the ...

Betelgeuse is a red giant star that exhibits roughly 100,000 times the brightness of our sun and more than 400 million times ...

This figure shows measurements of Betelgeuse's brightness from different observatories from late 2018 to present. The blue and green points represent data from ground-based observatories.

When Betelgeuse, a red supergiant star in the constellation Orion, eventually goes supernova—likely within the next 100,000 years—the night sky will light up as if a second sun appeared ...
