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.
