Betelgeuse dims - its going to blow
Betelgeuse brightens - its going to blow
Scientists know nothing
They really do not know it is near its life end.
All theories and speculation.....mostly for attention.

They really don’t know how far it is. It could be much closer. Maybe around 500 light years. As long as a supernova is at least 50 light-years away we should be safe here on Earth.

Betelgeuse, located around 700 light-years from Earth, is one of the most interesting stars in the sky. I guess that means it may have gone supernova 699 years ago and we will find out about it next year. Dems will blame it on Trump, climate change and white supremacy.

Betelgeuse, located around 700 light-years from Earth, went supernova 695 years ago so that gives everyone time to “party like no tomorrow” because there won’t be one ....

Currently, Betelgeuse is the 7th brightest star in the sky – up from its normal position as the 10th brightest, triggering speculation that Betelgeuse is about to blow in a spectacular supernova. People tend to miss the great INTEL inside the puns.
Genesis 1
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
Willie Nelson was really onto something when he sang that the stars are raindrops searching for a place to fall.
Sneaky -- who would ever believe it, being mixed in with the fake news that "I never cared for you."

“the red giant star Betelgeuse just will not stop with the wackiness.”
Whatever it was doing 700 years ago, it is probably doing something else today.
The article reads as if Betelgeuse is fluctuating now. For all we know, it went supernova about when Columbus discovered America.
