None of us will be alive to see the light from that supernova arrive here but it sure would be something to see.

There's no exact number, but it's estimated that Betelgeuse won't go supernova for another 100,000 years.... These are the same people who tell us that Global Climate Change will kill us all before the next century.............

"None of us will be alive to see the light from that supernova arrive here" It's so far away we are seeing it as it was. It takes 724 years for light to travel that distance. If it went supernova 723 years and ten months ago we will see it in the sky in 2 months.
