wow! you're telescope is sooo cool! This is the first time I saw Betelgeuse much closer! Thanks for uploading this beautiful video. Btw, Betelgeuse is my favorite star.
Another fun fact, when Betelgeuse goes supernova, nutrinos from it will fall to Earth into Earth's soil giving back much needed nutrients. The sky will constantly be bright for a couple of weeks as well before it begins to get dark at night again. I honestly can't wait to see this star explode even though it's so awesome. XD;
I don't understand how you capture Betelgeuse flickering the way it does in your video considering how far away this star actually is. Comparing other images and videos on YouTube of planets closer to us like Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter, the resolution and sharpness is far less than yours.
Lol you just don't get it lol. Stars as a single form of matter are like billions of light years out!!! Her was talking about stars too, just using galaxies as an example. Lol
@leonardoluiss02 If Betelgeuse is roughly 640 light years away, you see what it looked like in 1370 AD. Where do you get this thousands and millions of years crap?
@thatswhattheyis WOOOW i cant beleive half of you are so stupid vy canis majoris is only 20 lightyears away how can betelgeuse be 640 light yeart vy canis is biggest and farthest star -_-
@justinadil1 If you believe that the farthest star way from us is only 20 lightyears then you may not know that the Milky Way galaxy is roughly 100,000 light years across. Andromeda is roughly 2.5 million light years away and is visible with binoculars.
vy Canis Majoris is the largest known star, but still about 5,000 light years away. Did you get your info from the back of sugar packets?
@thatswhattheyis I am talking about stars not galaxies i know andromeda is pretty far and stars contain the andromeda but you lack intellegence andromeda is WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY bigger then vy canis majoris and almost bigger then the milky way! get your facts right im sure you get your information from your mom or some thing
Let's look at your quote - "vy canis majoris is only 20 lightyears away how can betelgeuse be 640 light yeart vy canis is biggest and farthest star"
You claim that another star cannot be farther away than vy canis because it is the "biggest and farthest star" meaning that you believe there are no other stars farther away than 20 lghtyrs as you stated.
Where did I say that any star is bigger than a galaxy? Are you reading this through a translator?
@FateMan22 that's because we see it as the star is collapsing, and losing it's energy, since it's lightyears away from us, we see how it was like thousands of years ago, if not millions, i actually believe it went supernova already
@leonardoluiss02 Betelgeuse is about 640 light years away so the light we are seeing today was from... let me think... this calculation is so complicated... let's say 640 years ago, am I right?

@Guilmon470 As long as is doesn't take the flamenebula, orion nebula and the horsehead nebula with it ..It will be awesome!

Other than the sun of course!
With my XT10 and Glass solar filter, I can only see
- granular detail
- penumbra and sunspots...etc.

Cappa,
The light is moving through water in Earths atmosphere. This is causing the twisting.
There is no way to see the details of ANY star with a telescope like this. Come to think of it, I have NEVER seen detail of another star.

why would you capture betelgeuse on camera in the first place when you could get the orion nebula or horsehead nebula in the same constellation
