As far as Betelgeuse goes, I've said it before and I'll say it again: it's clearly glittering C-beams and attack ships on fire causing the disturbance.
" the flame that burns twice as bright will only burn half as long , and you my son have burned so very brightly " . His Creator . I hope I remembered it correctly . It's been years since I saw the film .
I mean, if you can see any stars at all, Betelgeuse is probably one of them, as it's the 24th brightest. You might not be able to tell which one it is, but you probably can see it.
Yokolokosmoko Actually it was! The event you are seeing now has happened around 625 years ago! So, technically it was lopsided even before you were born!
We really dont know yet what the possibilities are regarding concepts like "life" and "consciousness" when it comes to things as massive as planets and stars, only that without the deaths of ancient stars the heavy elements required for complex life would never have been formed into planets and it takes at least three generations of stars living and dying, giving up thier heavy elements, before planets with the materials required for a technological civilization can form. Thats why some astrophysicists theorize that humanity may be the first, possibly only, civilization to develop Radio technology and Space flight, all other planets in the galaxy having life possibly being too old to have the materials needed for such technologies and so any intelligent life never having the resources to advance beyond the stoneage. O.o We could be the very first space ferring civilization just because stars like Betelgeuse sacrificed themselves.

Ultima Thule was never technically the official name, it was just a nickname given by the scientists studying it because it turns out not even scientists like using the "letter and number" designations in casual conversation. I'm not sure on the full reasoning on why they didn't make the nickname official, but I know part of it was that the term "Ultima Thule" actually has white supremacist connotations in specific contexts.

Here's one for you ...... See how Nobody's mentioned the possibility of something extremely large hitting Beetlejuice at an angle that we could not see and it's in a stage where it's recovering from the impact .
Weird question, I know this sounds stupid, but are there any invisible stars? Stars being blocked by gas clouds or maybe stars that only emit radio waves or something? Could it be possible that other stars that are closer to earth are ready to explode that we haven't or can not see?
Bad theory here, but what if a type 4 civilization goes around stars that are close to going supernova and tap into their energy, so the lopsided side is actually an unimaginably large object?
But why do that specifically? Surely you'd want to do something more gradual, such as bleed mass off of it for thousands of years. You could siphon off the entire outer envelope and build a new star from it, long before the big star was *close* to nova.
I much preferred the name "Ultima Thule". It really, really fitted closely with what the object is! The association with "bad WW2 Germans" is an unfortunate historical event that shouldn't be carried on forever! Buddhists and Hinduists in India and elsewhere in Asia are not ashamed in the slightest of using swastikas in their religious buildings, as their usage deprecates WW2 by thousands of years, literally. "ultima thule" is a name that also existed for thousands of years before those sad years in mankind, and had very possitive associations for Greco-Roman geographers as the ultimate frontier, why should we discard all that?
Could that lopsided appearance be from a concentration of mass of heavy fused elements that aren't able to enter the core, thus forced outwards and together through gravity and centripetal force? That would be interesting to have a definitive answer on.
To be honest, I've been terrified of an exploding Beetlejuice ever since I heard that this was a possibility as a small child 😅 please go on and on about how it is not dangerous, PLEASE! 💕🌟💫
Hold up, I thought the bigger something was the more gravity it has, but you're saying that Betelgeuse is so big that it has weak gravity on the surface? No wonder the flat-earthers are so confused
/Heavy/ things have more gravity, not big things. Not usually an important distinction in casual conversation, but important here. Essentially: imagine if Earth stayed just as heavy, but became twice as large. The center of gravity is still at the same point - the core - and the gravity of Earth in and of itself has not changed. Remember, though, that the farther you get away from the core, the weaker the pull of gravity is. Thus, us humans on the surface would experience less gravity since we're farther away from the core - even though the gravity is the same.
Perhaps there more external particles interacting with the star on one side rather than the other. Because of its size and swelling, maybe it's a build up of protons on the brighter side. The potential dust blocking the view on one side theory could be more than just blocking the view, it could be interacting with the star to cause the dimming. Just a theory of electromagnetic galaxies I've been working on. Things like this keep fitting well into the theory.
This popped up in my recommendations. I, at first thought you were going to talk about the movie as if it was being critiqued for being secretly dark themed or something.
I don't know if I'm the only one but I really hope that Betelgeuse explodes. I would really love to see a Supernova on the night sky during my lifetime. I know that even if the star exploded today by the time the light of the supernova explosion reaches earth I wont be here anymore so I really hope that Betelgeuse exploded ~ 630 years ago, so it is just a matter a few years for us to see the explosion. Then I remember that astronomical events do not unfold that quickly... and... conclude that I probably won't be able to see Betelgeuse explode :(
Oh, don't worry. If it goes supernova, it would be visible during the day, and brighter than the full moon at night. Per astrophysicists, this will last for about 3 months.
There are LITERALLY billions of stars out there. When I narrowed it down to Rigulus and Betelgeuse and picked the latter as my favorite star...I must have doomed it ;)
Ever since I learned a couple months ago that Betelgeuse was going to explode, I have been keeping my eye on the sky at night, hoping to see it “bloom”! But, that may or may not be soon, as to reading that it may explode within the next couple months to the next 100,000 years from now. I still watch though! Being hopeful! X3

Shy of that, I’d love to see an impressive meteor storm or a comet that can be seen with the naked eye, tail and all.
In regards to Arrokoth, if a Human were ever to be on its surface, what's its gravitational power?

Actually, the telescope you show is the VST (VLT Survey Telescope), not one of the UT of VLT that observed Betelgeuse. Anche when talking about planet formation in the background it should be a simulation of galaxy formation e interaction.
Well it looks lopsided, but we know this star is a runaway star. This causes it to have a bow shock on one side, so infrared imaging picks it up as lopsided.

i get goosebumps while thinking of this, every night i imagine a scenario that i am watching the stars and suddenly betelgeuse will explode and Earth most amazing fireworks show will be happening right in front of me. Ah, This gives me Chills
Actually, the telescope you show is the VST (VLT Survey Telescope), not one of the UT of VLT that observed Betelgeuse.
Anche when talking about planet formation in the background it should be a simulation of galaxy formation e interaction.
Betelgeuse Betelgeuse Betelgeu-
you just had to say it.
I thought you meant that the whole constellation was lopsided. I was like... Woah! 😳
Wow! Someone had too much coffee.
The sky is clear tonight and, yup, that's a very red star there.
With Betelgeuse, since its 650 lightyears away, we are seeing it 640 years ago. So it very well could have gone nova in the last 650 years.
All I got from this is that planets are formed from playing Katamari Demaci
Did she really just call it “beetle juice “?! 😳
Yes
Well it looks lopsided, but we know this star is a runaway star. This causes it to have a bow shock on one side, so infrared imaging picks it up as lopsided.
