How long will the star betelgeuse live?
Betelgeuse has less than a million years left, which is a very short time for a star.
Is Betelgeuse going to destroy 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.
When was the last time we saw Betelgeuse?
I saw it last night. Betelgeuse is one of the brightest stars in the sky, you just need to know where to look and it's easy to see.
How come you can see Betelgeuse now and its still a red giant why could you not see it last year this time?
You could see it last year. Betelgeuse is one of the brightest stars in the sky, and has been for a long time.
Best time to color hair?
Spring because of the diffrent color
How long would it take to get to Betelgeuse?
No one really knows, because no one has ever been to Betelgeuse. It would take much more time than getting to Pluto.
What color do we see at birth?
They can see all the colours, but a bit brighter because it is their first time seeing these colours.
How long does it take light to reach earth from Betelgeuse?
Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star about 640 light-years from Earth. So light from Betelgeuse takes 640 years to get here. Here's an interesting fact; the star Betelgeuse is probably near the end of its life, and may explode in a supernova explosion any time. Very massive stars like Betelgeuse live fast and die in under 100 million years, and Betelgeuse will probably go supernova within the next 10,000 years. This is like no time at all in cosmic terms, but in terms of a HUMAN lifetime, it probably will NOT happen while we're alive to see it. But it could. In fact, Betelgeuse might have exploded 500 years ago, and we wouldn't know it for another 140 years!
Is there any way you can determine if Betelgeuse has gone supernova earlier this month?
The only way we'll ever know if Betelgeuse has "gone supernova" is when we see it. Of course, by the time we see it, the event will actually have happened some 640 years earlier, because that's how long its light takes to reach our eyes. Despite being only about 10 million years old (young, by stellar standards,) Betelgeuse is very late in its life cycle. Astronomers estimate in has about a million years left, maximum. Of course, it may already have experienced its supernova; we just don't know yet because when we see Betelgeuse, we're seeing it as it appeared in approximately the year 1375.
How long does it take for betelgeuse to orbit its galaxy?
Since Betelgeuse is a nearby star (compared to the size of the galaxy, that is), you can assume that it takes about the same time as our Solar System to orbit the galaxy - approximately 240 million years.
What time should you take extenze?
Use it when your getting an erection that's the best way of seeing results.
Which was discovered first Betelgeuse or Rigel?
Betelgeuse and Rigel are both in the top 10 brightest stars in the sky. They have been seen bright in the sky even since cavemen looked up. So, they were discovered about the same time.
