Betelgeuse's antics prompted speculations that the star might soon explode in asupernova. Supernova explosions are the swan song of very massive stars. After they consume all of the helium in their cores, red giants begin to burn carbon and oxygen into neon and magnesium, then burn those int...

loss during this stage will shorten the RSG phase, and cause the star to evolve bluewards again in the HRD, going through a second YSG phase possibly becoming a Wolf–Rayet star or even an LBV (Groh et al., 2013). Otherwise,RSGsare expected to end their lives asType II supernovae. ...
" Montargès said. "For maybe two months, it will be so bright that if you shut down all the lights in a city and have no clouds, you would be able to read a book in the light of the supernova. It will be so bright that it will be ...
"To answer the question the best I can, Betelgeuse is probably not going to supernova any time soon," Ybarra told Mashable. Once a star becomes a red giant, it has a lot of cooking to do. Under the immense pressure in its core, heat fuses helium into carbon. After thousands of years...
and to explode as a core-collapsesupernova(SN-Type II), or collapse directly into black holes (collapsars) relatively soon after formation. Hence, they do not exist in the Universe today or at least not in normal galaxies. However, they played a critical role in synthesizing the firstheavy...
It’s not entirely clear why Delon opted to dial down that restless screen energy in later roles, but one can easily distinguish a difference between the supernova charm he brought to 1964’s “The Black Tulip” (a loose Dumas adaptation in which he plays the swashbuckling twins) and the ...
This distance should provide some relief to those worrying about Betelgeuse going supernova in the future. When it does, it will be a spectacular sight in the sky. It will shine as bright as the half-moon, for several months. What type of star is Betelgeuse? Betelgeuse is considered a ...
short-lived objects that exploded as supernovae soon after. In the wake of such explosions, gas clouds gave rise to a second generation of stars that telescopes can still pick out today. Scientists have thought that the first stars in the universe burst with tremendous energy, spewing out the...
