530 light years for something that big is still a little close when it super-novas. A radius of 324 million miles still would put all planets from Mercury to Mars inside it...

There’s a fun 3d VR show-place in Roswell, NM that has visual of being on a spaceship looking at a Betelguese like star that’s worth the price of admisdion.

I guess that drives a final nail through the coffin of my hopes of seeing a supernova in my lifetime.

I find this puzzling as we can actually see Betelgeuse as a disc, not a point source. You would think that Hipparcos data would have nailed this down years ago.
I did a little searching and found that the estimated distance has fluctuated between 400 and 600 ly for years. Hipparcos has it at 425.
Will be waiting for more information on this one!

I just knew something wasn’t right when I looked at it.
