Its quite possible that when Betelgeuse goes supernova (within a short "astronomical" time scale) that the remaining core will have enough mass to become a black hole. When it does, it will become the most studied "star" in our lifetime.

Will Betelgeuse become a white dwarf?
It's difficult to know exactly what Betelgeuse will become, but it will most likely explode as a supernova. The result will probably be a black hole, but depending on the magnitude of the explosion, it could become a neutron star or pulsar.
When beetleguese dies will it be a black hole?
That is quite possible, since Betelgeuse is a fairly massive star.
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
If 2 black holes join together what hole will it become?
A more massive black hole.
What comes after black holes?
After the black hole dies out, (see When do black holes die and/or How does a black hole get smaller) it will become just a vacuum.
Will Betelgeuse become a neutron star?
After a supernova explosion in Betelgeuse it will definitely become at least a neutron star. However, because of it's mass it's more than likely to become a black hole. If it does, then it will be the closest black hole to Earth.

Is there any star near the earth which can create a black hole?
Betelgeuse is a good candidate at only 430 light years from Earth is has sufficient mass to explode as a supernova and leave behind a black hole. It has been speculated that Betelgeuse will explode (in astronomical terms) fairly soon.
Is betelgeuse a rocket a disease which effects astronauts the largest known star or your nearest black hole?
Betelgeuse is a red giant star in Orion, and it is one of the biggest and brightest stars known.
Will Pluto become a black hole?
No. Pluto is nowhere near massive enough to become a black hole.
Will the sun become a black hole one day?
No. The sun does not have enough mass to become a black hole. When the sun dies it will become a white dwarf.
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
If 2 black holes join together what hole will it become?
A more massive black hole.
Why is the sun considred a black hole?
First of all, our sun can not become a black hole, it is too small for that. However if a star is three times bigger than our sun, then yes it will become a black hole.
Is a black hole the remains of a lost planet?
No. No planet is massive enough to become a black hole. A black hole is the remains of a dead, supermassive star.
How long will it take for the sun to become a black hole?
The sun should not become a black hole. It does not have sufficient mass to undergo the necessary collapse.
