Betelgeuse Surface Video + Going Supernova

Tribute video to the famus red supergiant star Betelgeuse. Features a surface video and a picture of the spectacular supernova explosion.
When it explodes, it may become a Pulsar surrounded by a big nebula.

One source claims Betelgeuse has gone supernova and we will see it in 38 years.

[nixxxon18]

@rollsthepaul what source?

[SiSTiCkA]

omg... it is not 10.000 years old but 10.000.000 years old...

[Danhtran1122]

That look scary and it not round like the sun at all. We may predict when it goes supernova by monitor when it start to collapses inward.

[Danhtran1122]

@LiberalJerseyman they talk about earth's time.

when vy canis majoris explodes it will do a hypernova a hypernova is more powerful then supernova but canis majoris is millions of lightyears likke 100000.00000 lyight years away so canis wont harm us but canis will go before betelguse cause its more bigger then betelguse.

@LiberalJerseyman Betelgeuse probably already exploded.

[witherspoon1995]

@rollsthepaul for that to be true there would have to be someone 38 light years away from us directly in between us and this star, sending messages instantaneously somehow not using radio waves or light signals to tell us this, meaning that the message would also not get here for another 38 years. You sir, are a moron.

[LiberalJerseyman]

@rollsthepaul That's impossible. If Betelgeuse were to explode right now, we wouldn't see it until 2652.

[KGX16]

if the supernova is to be seen in my lifetime, this means it must have become a supernova over 400 years back, its already a supernova, know what I mean?

[astlefrost]

@rollsthepaul how is it possible to get the information about supervova explosion faster than speed of light??only when we see the event we can be sure
