It's about 600 or 700 light-years.
Betelgeuse is approximately 600 light years from Earth.

No, Betelgeuse is about 640 light-years from earth, but some stars are many billions of light-years away.
It is around 640 lightyears away.
When we look at stars, we are seeing the light that they are emitting. That light could have left them many years ago. The light from Betelgeuse takes over 640 years to reach us. So if it exploded today, we would not see that explosion for over 640 years. So it is possible that it is already gone, but the light that left before it went is still coming towards us.

One parsec is equivalent to 3.3 light years. 150 parsecs = 150 x 3.3 = 495 light years

The runaway crimson Super Giant named Betelguese was estimated in 2008 to be approximately 640 light years away from our Earth.
The answer is unknown because it's precise distance from our solar system has never been determined so getting a size estimate is problematic, at best. Estimates range from 160 to 1200 light years distance with 600-700 light years being the most accepted distance. It is estimated that Betelgeuse is only 1 million years old and will go nova within the next 1 million years.
No, large stars like Betelgeuse only last a few million years. Our sun is older, at around 4.5 billion years, and there are many stars even older than our sun.
The word "Betelgeuse" has 3 syllables in it Be-tel-geuse.
None. A Capella is defined as singing without instrumental sound.
If I wrote out that distance in miles, there would probably be more digits than I could fit in this typing box. If you measure it in light years instead, I think it is a few hundred of those.
