Make Betelgeuse Bright Again!

“The dimming was caused by a dusty veil shading the star.”
Like the Deep State shading Trump. Only a temporary dimming.

NOTE: Betelgeuse is the only star we can see as a disk or globe it is so huge. It would just barely fit inside the orbit of SATURN!.................

Hasn’t it always been variable? Or is this the fault of climate change? /s

Is there a little bright, green spot near one edge?
To: Red Badger
OK, but now that we know what caused the dimming, where did the gas cloud originate and what caused its formation. If it is moving, in what direction? It must be hugh and series!

This is what these astrophysicists don’t understand.
They say a star is being born when they see it getting brighter but it’s just that the dust is clearing.
The same thing happened here...

...giant bubbles of gas move, shrink and swell within the star. The team concludes that some time before the great dimming, the star ejected a large gas bubble that moved away from it... Star farts. I can relate.

Interesting, but only conjecture.

I saw an article recently that stated that new observations indicate Betelgeuse is actually closer to us than previously thought.

Betelgeuse is massive.
I always look for the puns. I'm never disappointed. Here's a big one:
Betelgeuse --
Bet + El + Jews,
the house of the God of the Jews.
Massive.
See, the truth is out there!
People should just look up. :)
