- If Betelgeuse were to explode, creating a supernova, would it destroy Earth?
Betelgeuse is the second brightest star in the constellation Orion and it sparked excitement around the world when it began dimming noticeably in 2019.
The strange dimming caused some to believe the big event was close at hand. By February 2020, the star had lost more than two-thirds of its brightness and the change was visible even to the unaided eye.
Astrophysicists say we'd have to be within 50 light-years of a supernova for it to harm us, and Betelgeuse is over 500 light-years away.
And the strange dimming was caused by a cloud of hot gas, released by the star, that temporarily blocked some of the star’s light. - Věda a technologie

Blows my mind that it dimmed, but it actually would have happened 560ish years ago. Will the new space telescope be able to see it in present time? If not how close to present time can it see? Not sure if that even works that way, good video idea though.
Goofy ahh Aleins
Isn't that 500 light years in the past? That means even if it had gone supernova, the earth is still here. So what is the point of this question anyways.
Glad im safe from Beetlejuice 😂

_"Could Betelgeuse destroy Earth?"_
Only if we say it three times. 😋
You beat me to the joke 😂
Betelgeuse
Betelgeuse
Beeeeeecause
Damnt! I made the comment on the same joke, I had to delete it once I read yours.
He actually said it exactly 3 Times 😂☹
"my brain trembles"
The fact a supernova can do significant damage to life even 50 light years away is amazing in itself.
Humans show their might and the universe laughs in their faces
It is incredible stuff for sure! Make sure you have even a simple telescope if we ever do have a supernova visible in the night sky. The power involved, the scale of how big it is, it's hard to wrap your head around it
Depends on the size of a supernova. The safe distance is around 10 light years between us and average ones.
Yup gamma rays are a real son of a B
@@timidjawa6324this Is false, for a supernova to cause even extremely minor damage to us it only needs to be 300 light years away
One of my dreams is we see Betelgeuse Nova in our lifetimes.
That means it exploded 500 years ago.
An amazing thing it would be - a second moon at night, visible during the day.
@@1878religion One light year is the amount of km light travels in a year. If something is 500 light years away from Earth, then it takes 500 years to reach that point, or to that point reach the Earth. So if we saw Betelgeuse go supernova right now, it would’ve actually exploded 500 years ago. So Trumpington Fanhurst is correct.
@@1878religion Yoh just contradicted yourself. Yes years are time and light years are distance, but you’re the one who seems to have gotten that wrong in the first place.
@@1878religion Everyone else here seems to already know that, you’re the only one who tried to equate the two.
@@1878religion bro 1 light year means the "the total distance travelled by light in one earth year"...Which is 9.461×10^15 meteres
Okay okay. 🍻
Beetlejuice: that’s my name !
Betelgeuse: No it’s my name!
Wow! Man. I can't wait to see James Webb pics of these giants.
Do we know when they will release them?
@@mrwaverider5537 It is still in calibration process but it has reached its lowest temperature recently. So we can expect images sooner than later. Last image was fantastic which they uploaded on thier site.
@@imteraz wow, so excited thanks for the reply! Do you know what site I can see the images once they release them,
or will they just be online and easy to find?
@@mrwaverider5537 Yeah sure, you can see all the images on the Nasa's website gallery.
It's for closer objects. NASA will be second to post anything
"Could Betelgeuse destroy the world?"
"No. Next video."
You're boring amd cut right to the chase.
The heaven's will be shaken, and on earth, men will be faint out of fear.
@@OleScrappy you're one of those fanatics who die first
@@O1iviaWard nah he's probably quoted something
@@SetuwoKecik luke 21:26 some god stuff
A star let one rip and it took years for us to find out and we started freaking out a bit. My life is complete.
🤣🤣🤣 your perspective is golden!
Between this, and the ramped -up natural disasters and mankind's actions, I'd like to know my Creator a little better.
Damn Beetlejuice tryna kill shit in movies and in real life 🤣🤣
Beetlejuice is in the armpit of Orion 🤣🤣
That's hilarious 😂
🤣🤣
Let’s hope he put on Old Spice or Beetlejuice gonna spread his stench
I’ve noticed that too😂😂😂
Imagine the smell...
This means that beetlegeuse let out a big one 500 years ago, damn
Basically a fart of the past when we were in the dark age.
Betelgeuse has a big brapper on it😏
its Betelgeuse not beetlegeuse
@@OTA_SWORD_Unit he’s joking about how the guy spelled Betelgeuse wrong
A blast from the past
I like how Betelgeuse is said like “beetlejuice”😂😂😂
Beetle will eventually juice all over us and we may not even know it 😩
Plot twist, Betelgeuse went supernova 500 years ago, the light just hasn't reached us yet
It actually did, we just won't know 'till the year 2522 or 5690.
We don’t know if it exploded yet or not if it. Also if it exploded 500 years ago then the light will reach us in our life times so we would see it.
It has already gone supernova. The distance is just astronomical for us to notice right now.
@@thetruthpost9693 OK so tell me the truth then? What is bs about it?
@@thetruthpost9693 you must be an expert please enlighten me with ur knowledge.
It is called common sense and logic. There are zero non cgi photos of earth from space. We never went to the moon. It is all a lie.
There is no curve 8 inches square every mile.
Watch DITRH channel or Eric Dubuay. So easy
The distance is imaginary. Zoom lens cameras prove it.
@@thetruthpost9693 bruh !!! Ur one of those flat earth theory people. Hmm I thought u might give me some valid points to further my knowledge of space but it seems that with every rotation of this planet u lose brain cells . Please don't waste people's time with such BS thank you
Him: Betelgeuse
Me: Beetle Juice
R.I.P for the people who was watching this video in dark
Maybe the star is already dead, we won't know till 2522😯
Right, it could have already exploded.
Yeah bcs it's too far away till reach the earth
@@mezman7630 it's 500 ly away,
Light will take 500 years to reach us
I taught BG was at 1100 / 1300 lightyears from us, she's 500 OR 600 times our sun
@@spaceman667 roughly 650 light-years away.
Bro imagine how lucky generation will be which will see betelgeuse supernova.
Bullyguese: imma put some dirt in your eye
Chuck, thank you for all of your wonderful information, beautiful pictures & videos!
I just love when a new one is posted!
I've loved space my whole life (mid-40's here) & I'm learning so much from you!
You are very welcome
If you don't believe in God or doubt Him, pray for at least 20 seconds saying as if you were talking to someone face to face with sincerity: "God, if you exist, help me to know that you exist". (no hate :D)
@@pbroth6658 Buddy, you supposedly support the same God who allows women and children to die to genocide.
Hey Chuck I recently refound my love for space and I found your channel. I really want a telescope and I would love to know which ones you use!
Space is fake. Grow up
@@thetruthpost9693 hope you’re joking 😂
Wakey wakey time. Nasa lies.
@@thetruthpost9693 didn’t know this channel was NASA 😂
I'm fairly certain there are several stars larger then Beetlejuice including UY scuti, VY canis majoris, and stephenson 2-18
If it did, we wouldn’t know for a while. Over 500 light years later if it happened right now.
“Beetle juice”
Me:GOD THATS A HOT BEETLE
Amazing! I definitely witnessed the dimming
I like how beetlejuice is in orions armpit😂😂
Man got a whole star named after him
Lol I already know that star can't destroy Earth 🌎🌍
So the star farted?
Basically
my first thought
It’s called a Coronal Mass Ejection, or CME.
And it was the Mother of All CME’s, and was Still probably a Sight to behold (if we could’ve caught sight of it), but no, It is Not a sign of an impending Supernova as many Stars do this All the time, even Sol, our own Star, did it a few times before aswell, the last one from Sol actually Almost hit earth, and that was in 2012, if it hit, Everything would’ve gone to hell, the last CME that hit earth hit in the 1850’s, and it Short out most electrical systems back then, thankfully that was mainly only Power-lines and Telegraph poles, We missed the 2012 one by a hair.
but also yeah it’s a Star Fart pretty much, or more accurately a Star-Burp.
@@Kreachie no, it farted
@@Kreachie yeah no, it totally farted
Me like wtf zooming in underarm 🤣🤣🤣
*Now that's what you call "A Slothful Supernova."*
Earth: Spell “Dead”
BeetleGeuse: “L,S,T,E,R”
Terrifying. I love it.
Beetlejuice 😭😂
Legend says if you say Beetlejuice 3 times, Michael Keaton comes to get you.
Technically it farted 😂
Farted during the late medieval era lol
Tell me why I thought of the "tell me why ain't nothing- line" and of beluga
smokin too much pot?
@@1878religion nah to much turtle
@@weirdcoreturtles u smoke turtles? dude that's so weirdcore.
@@1878religion ty
If theres life in that 50 light year radius, this would be the most immensly sad tragedy that would never be known.
Close at hand for a star = eternity for humanity.
That's true.
My brain trembles...
Chuck, I'm amazed at what you see from your yard. Thanks for taking the time to make videos about what you know for everyone to share.
It probably already gone supernova but were still seeing the past
Congrats, You saved me from a fear and a panic attack. You just earned a sub.
Sorry to bring back the panic attack, but Beetlegeuse is going supernova sometime this year still.
Turns out the dimming wasn't hot gas.
@@Riflery Its fine, atleast its not the end of the world lol
I'm glad beetlejuice exploded and i am still alive right now 💀
Pov: *sniffs* Betelgeuse
Betelgeuse: how dare thy profane god. *Megumin noises*
EXPLOSION
I'm going to call on the Creator, not some false deity. The truth for once.
Letting out a giant wet fart that obscures light sounds totally in character for Beetlejuice the movie character.
Thanks for the breakdown on this supergiant. Your short actually taught me something.
bruh each time i heard "beetlejuice" 💀💀
Beetle 🪲 juice 🧃
if we saw betelgeuse die, it died over 500 earth years ago
Beet's final revenge against Slapnut.
Betelgeuse is on Orion's armpit 💅
It can or it can't.... We don't know for sure what will happen to Betelgeuse after many years.
I read Betelgeuse as Beetlejuice lmfao 😆🤣
Hearing the word Betelgeuse
Beetle juice comes in my mind lol hahaah
So it exploded already 500 years ago, and we just saw this now
"beetlejuice" 🤓
So this means it actually started blinking in 1500’s
Yet another instance of a mortal threat turning out to be just gas 🤣
BeetleJuice getting mad again
Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse!!!
Congratulations. I'm so glad this channel is growing so well, great to see a channel get the recognition they deserve. Can't wait to see where this channel goes from here .
Also beetlejuice:

What l hear:beetlejuice
Betelgeuse: *explodes*
Orion: OOF
"🎶Every party needs a pooper, that's why they invited you🎶 Party pooper🎶 Party Pooper🎶"
That was one epic star fart...
Beetlejuice

Beetlejuice
Betelgeuse farted
That small comedian guy won't hurt us
Betelgeuse has gas😂😂😂😂
If Betelgeuse was mad at us.
orion hunter's right shoulder is about to be dislocated
Star:*farts*
Humans over 500 ly away: oh God were guna die
DONT DO IT BEETLEJUICE PLEASE
The dimming was the stink from Orion's armpit 😂😂
No way an armpit of a constellation would do earth's demise
If it were a supernova, Betelgeuse would shine brighter than a full moon.
The day the betelgeuse star dies so will the real beetlejuice
Betelguese Romanee-Contee................ DESS!
MY MOM WAS WORRIED 😂
So, the star farting caused the dimming.
If Beetlejuice destroyed the earth i will ask him questions
I thought Beatlejuice was going to kill us all
See Beetlejuice may be short and may play dumb, but he is too powerful
It goes supernova after 1000 years, live streams say that Betelgeuse is going supernova now
Remembering that anything we see from the Star happened 500 years ago.
*distant made of steel plays*
"a cloud of hot gas". Alien smoke signals?👽🤔
A farting star called Beetlejuice that lives in Orion's armpit
Me hearing it beetlejuice:bro how is a person gonna destroy the earth
all I can think of hearing this is beetlejuice is located at the armpit and his hot gas released made him to not be bright
Beetlejuice could still get us if it went into a gamma ray burst and was pointed in our Direction.
So basically Betelgeuse farted so bad it blocked some of its own starlight.....classic Betelgeuse lol
"Beetlejuice" 💀
If battle juice exploded then our planet would get rings like saturn
It dimmed because a space craft absorbed the explosion. Thus not wasting the energy.
Supernova is just extension of space getting bigger
The armpit star
Yep, I zoomed in on the armpit, you're welcome! lol
500 light years away and y’all see a dim then it already blew 😞
