Yes, it's one of the brighter stars in the night sky.
Brightnest is a factor of luminousity and distance as seen from Earth. (Apparent magnitude)Vega - 0.03.Betelgeuse: 0.42So Betelgeuse is brighter as viewed from Earth.
Yes, Betelgeuse is one of the brighter stars in the sky. The red star of Orion's left shoulder is Betelgeuse.
Size-wise, the Sun is to Betelgeuse as the Earth is to the Sun.
Betelgeuse is about 1,180 times larger the Sun. So Betelgeuse is about 128,620 times bigger than Earth. So as a rough approximation about 2,127,774,087,928,000 Earths could fit into Betelgeuse. That's 2 quadrillion.
We will have a pretty sight in the night sky. When it explodes, Betelgeuse is predicted to be almost as bright as a full moon in our night sky for a few weeks. Scientists will also learn a lot about supernovas, from being able to observe one happening relatively close. But, Betelgeuse is too far away to do any damage to Earth.
Betelgeuse is 40,473,416.93376 AU' (Astronomical Units) from Earth.
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.
Betelgeuse is in the constellation Orion and is best seen during the winter months in the northern hemisphere. It is very well placed for viewing around the months of November, December and January. Orion is a very easy constellation to find and Betelgeuse is the very bright and reddish looking star at the top left of it.
well my reason is that the betelgeuse must be very large , because they said that the betelgeuse is located far from earth .

No. Some time in the next million years Betelgeuse will explode as a supernova, but it is too far away from us to damage the earth. All we will see is Betelgeuse getting a lot brighter in the night sky.
