The news is that Betelgeuse is only about 500 light years off -- instead of around 670. . . which may not sound like much, but it is in fact 170 years closer. And smaller -- not quite as gargantuan -- only about two thirds the circumference of Jupiter's orbit -- as opposed to engulfing Jupiter, were it at the center of our solar system.
Either way though, we'd be toast -- deep inside its belly. Here are the latest findings, as summarized for a lay audience.
So, do be excellent to one another, as we. . . are all. . . we've got.
