- Welcome to another experiment in Universe Sandbox 2, for science.
Today we'll be seeing what would happen to Earth when Betelgeuse goes supernova in the future.
Universe Sandbox 2 is a space sandbox with endless possibilities, and is an awesome game for people who wonder about pretty intense things happening in our universe. But, keep in mind the physics and results depicted in this game are to be taken with a grain a salt, the game tries to, but does not always accurately reproduce the expectations of our current knowledge of physics, and the game is still an early access alpha!
A lot of the ideas in this series are suggestions by viewers and aren't intended to be "educational," so take the results of this test with a grain of salt!

For people asking what software this is, it's "Universe Sandbox 2" and there's a link in the description. I've also made a newer video on the subject. th-cam.com/video/l7lxqUk3xlY/w-d-xo.html
I'm not sure it's accurate to call it a "game" it's more of a physics simulation even if it's not a fully complete one.
When i play this game i realise what a tiny insignificant blip our Human lifespan is. We're like one tick of the clock.
Chris Ward not even one tick 😆
So, being as it's 640 LY away, isn't it more accurate to say "we're looking to see if an event that has already happened has reached us yet"? The neutrino burst is only a few hours ahead of the visible light, so sleep easy and it happens, it happens.
No, because it most likely won't happen for hundreds of thousands of years yet.
Thank you. Subbed. Gonna be an awesome 4th of July, later rather than sooner.
You said the name 3 times! *gasp*
TheGuyYouCantStand No. This is the third time that the third time.
i don't get what is the point of saying betelgeuse 3 times.
Daquan Is good it's a movie
HEY! There goes Elvis! Hey KING!
TheGuyYouCantStand OH NO!!!
It will hatch a dragon when it goes supernova. This is well known, I am surprised that you did not mention it.
if you have a question :"What Happen When Sun Supernova collied with sirius supernova" this video : th-cam.com/video/QOK4fjaWNq8/w-d-xo.html will answer your question
TRẢ LỜI
Found this: "Betelgeuse lies some 430 light-years from Earth. (Note: determining distances, especially to red supergiant stars, is a vexing problem in Astronomy. Estimates vary and are often revised, with some as high as 650 light-years.)"
Good to know, I found through a lot of resources the distance was ~640, so I went with that value in doubt of Space Engine's accuracy.
690 L>Yrs.
The most agreed distance is 642 or 643.
The Supernova will never get that big, it would have turned into a Nebula long time ago (In the simulation) and before the nebula ever expanded to reach Earth, it would have dissipated.
TheRedstoneHive its a black dwarf
true
Yes it would have reformed as a nebula on it's on cumulative weight. This game might not be able to implement gravity on that many particles.
you don't know what you're talking about.
Gamma rays will hit earth,
also i loved how you didn't notice you placed it as a still object
I would like to see the Trappist 1 system orbit our Sun in an long elliptical orbit coming in from the bottom of our sun. is that type of simulation possible?
How to pronounce Betelgeuse = Beetle Juice
Bee-tol-joos?
Frank Heuvelman It is a movie
thats twice. dont say it again
Frank Heuvelman TMI, this is a children's show, dude.
@Frank Heuvelman lmao
This was really cool. Can you imagine an earth where the night sky is this lit up? For thousands of years there would be an additional light source backing the sun and boosting the night. Our entire ecosystem would change after a time. The differences would be enormous and if we harnessed ways to fully utilize solar by then (which barring some horrible event we surly will) then the additional energy would compound all mans resources for THOUSANDS OF YEARS! Such a wild concept to play with..
The light from the explosion itself would only lasts about four months. As for the rest of the time, it's dying light would only reflect off of the debris and dust of the nebula it will create and would largely only be seen with a telescope.
They'll still blame it in on anthropogenic global warming.
We're already at 23% efficiency with solar-electric, and not likely to improve much because the materials are sensitive to certain wave-lengths, not ALL wave-lengths, and the top surface will reflect about 15% no matter what.
oil is just stored solar energy
Shouldnt the Gamma-Blast be a problem for us?
Fortunately, Betelgeuse's 650 light-years away from our home planet Earth.
This is the coolest thing ever. I could play this for two weeks straight, without peeing.
Pretty cool simulation to see :D.
actually it's 690 light years away so lets not worry. perhaps its gone super nova hundreds of years ago but who cares
Exactly.. It probably exploded already and we havn't seen it happening, yet.
It's not unreasonable to interpret Einsteinian Relativity as saying that things don't happen until the shortest possible time that we could find out about it, i.e. the time it would take the neutrino pulse from the collapse to reach us. So, in our reference frame, it would be accurate to say that it hasn't happened yet, even as the effects might be zipping through space towards us as measured in some other star's reference frame.
642 light years away.
643 ly but give or take 146 so Nel is also right as are you but i am being anal just like the reply
Distance frim Earth:
643 ± 146[9] ly
(197 ± 45[9] pc)
Right, plus they figured it's poles are 20 degrees away from Earth, so no gamma ray burst to be really concerned about.
The 2 degree gamma ray burst will apparently miss Earth by 20 degrees. This is good.
Also, what you're showing is the nebula that would form after the super nova. If there was a threat of a gamma ray burst, we would know as soon as we witnessed the explosion itself. Because gamma rays travel at the speed of light. The nebula is gas and dust traveling away at much lower speeds.
The Betelgeuse Model on the latest version of space engine looks AWESOME!
Awesome video. That program or game as u call it is super interesting
Makes me sorry that I won't live to see it.
it may have go supernova a year ago but the distance of the space makes it forever to the ligth to reach the earth :'c
You probably will unless ur not like 80
Could there be a chain reaction effect from planets close to Betelgeuse exploding and cause a chain reaction along the way far enough to effect earth?
So beautiful!
You made the Sun lose Earth? You're fired!
The soundtrack at the beginning is very samiliar to one in Osmos.
Very good and informative, thanks. I think the music detracts from the quality.
Tons of inaccuracies in this "game" of space. When it goes supernova, it will shine brightly for a few days - possibly more brightness than a full moon, and then get dimmer over 3 to 5 months. For about 10 weeks or so, it will be visible (like a bright star) during daylight. The nebula (the part this silly game makes expand over time to look like it's swallowing the earth) does not reach us this way. Betelgeuse's rotation is about 20 degrees off the plane of the solar system's ecliptic, and when it explodes, any gamma radiation (which will come off its poles) will bypass the earth (and probably the solar system in general).
But what is simulated in this "game" is not what actually happens.
I intend to make a video on this in the future, it's on my list, but yeah the supernovas in this game are basically just a couple illuminated particles that burn away planets for a moment then have an abrupt cut off of their destruction capabilities. Then it just expands and fades out for 100,000 years or so. I mentioned it in one of my more recent US2 videos.
Keeping in mind that this game is still an early access alpha that is in development by a very small team, and has shown signs of very active development. In its current state, it does have short comings. This series is more about what happens in this game, not so much how it actually happens, hence why I list the videos under the gaming category.
Were soooo overdue ! ....whos nxt ..geuse or carina ??? ....
Ahhh supernova,what a nice name for such a DEADLY THING
could you do the same video but replace beatle with the biggest star we know of and see what it does to earth?
Gamma ray burst is what we should be concerned about. But since 5 degree ejection is at the poles and we a 20 percent out of alignment w the southern pole of the star we should be ok.
When this happens we will finally be able to find Planet 9 as it will be lit up. Cant wait
only 11 thousand years into the future, well just wake me when it's here.
I want to see it! Hey, at least the Earth may get a fresh supply of gold.
Sad thing is since space is pretty much silent there won't be a muffled "kathoom" sound
"kathoom"? and "pretty much silent"? and "muffled"? sounds a bit like a morning after a curry.
Yeah, but it is a nice added touch for those playing the game, I'd say the sound effects add to the experience, and for those who feel it takes from it I do believe it can be toggled off
Oh boy the betelgeuse explosion is far I can life longer and dont worry about it
I think that the distance varies because its a star of significantly variable brightness and thus is more difficult to estimate the distance.
Distance to any star is very difficult to measure, but in this case, the variable and assymetric nature of Betelgeuse makes it even worse. Hence the large uncertainty. The wiki article actually says 643±146 ly. That's how clueless we are. I believe the numbers are a statistical combination of numerous measurements. 427 ly is almost deinitely wrong, but it doesn't really matter a whole lot if it is 500 or 700 light years.
:p going to be a pain for astronomers with all that extra light.
If Betelgeuse goes supernova, it becomes a flashing neutron star called the Betelgeuse Pulsar.
Kudos!
beetlejuice blew 100 years ago but we wont see the light for another 2000 years
Would the supernova light shorten the nights, if not eliminate them?
Betelgeuse is 642.5 light years away so if we see it go supernova we are seeing what happened 642.5 years ago as that is how long it took the light from that event to get here.
I hope I'm alive to see this it would be EPIC
My laptop would have an aneurism running this software
I hope this happens in my life time. It will be amazing to see.
I was just thinking about this today
If I didn't know better, I'd say I traveled 30,000 years into the future...
What affect would Betelgeuse have on the other stars in Orion? Could it cause a chain reaction?
Its hard to calc the distance to betelguese. There's a wide range of estimates.
Yeah. my ruler is only a foot long and I just don't have the time.
The music was perfect at the beginning
Damn 11,000 years into the future. Will humans even be alive?
My I would give anything to see an actual super nova! It must be extremely beautiful besides of what the simulations show. It’s really fitting to me though that these huge bright glorious giants explode in an array of beautiful colors and blasts of power
I was looking at actual Betelgeuse in Orion in the left corner. Haha.
Which is the software that you are using in this video? Would really like to have it
The exact distance is up for debate. It's between 450-650 light years away
amazing!
It's showtime!
Beh-tel-gew-sss
Bettle jews.
@@ieatpandaz2970 are u Hitler?
@@user-jg9fj7cc3p iT iS a JoKe
IT'S SHOWTIME!!!
I don't know the fact but i remember seeing a chart when i was young that showed how many Earths and Suns you could fit inside Betelgeuse. I think is was something like a 100 Earths per Sun and 1mil suns per Betelgeuse. idk.
if you don't mind, what's that simulation software? it's Soo cool to play around stars and space
subscribed by the way:)
Universe Sandbox 2 is available on Steam for $25, Space Engine is completely free.
My brain tremble.
Gum nebula - 2.6 million years old, almost 1000 light years across, and is so dim it only emits light in the infrared.
Sorry for being a little late :)
galaxymap.org/cat/list/gum/11
Yey, I wont die!
Hmm.. Im kinda curious. What if Titan was a moon of Venus?
X3
Murrica will invade with nasa cuz they 100x more oil then earrh
We would have colonized it prob
I'm afraid of dieing
Me too. When I was three or four, my Mother showed me by accident the mummy of Tut ench Amun. Since then I am afraid of death, I could sleep no night, cried each evening in her arm, and so on. But through al the years, and my fear never went away, I decided just never to die. I told my Mother- I loved alwys history, always, and this was the reason for that accident I will be the very last human being on earth, because I wnt to see 'the end of the history'. SHe said in shock, this would be nameless cruel, I would see everyone I loved once dying, and I would be so alone.
No matter. I will never die, and I will see what becomes of all what we see today. Remember me :) I will be the very last one you will once meet in heaven. I will arrive alive, when the world is at its end :D
Recent sudden dimming - also sudden gravity wave anamoly from it...
it would be interesting to simulate if the asteroids in the asteroid belt is carefully crashed into mars such that it is intended to increase its mass to one earth mass and modify its orbit to be more circular. how would it affect the other planets in the solar system esp. earth?
Better get my solar glasses and sun tan lotion ready. This will be great.
Thats an interesting and terrifying glitch... I hope?
Yours turned into a neutron star? I launched Betelgeuse at the sun just to see what would happen & after 5 Billion years it turned into a gas giant.
Well the Star is 652 light years away, so if we are going to see it, it’s already happened.
The star officially exploded on 12/6/2019,and I was standing out side with my mom and we saw the huge bright light in the sky,and there you have it folk's.
and they say it will explode this year..
Cannot wait
When Betelgeuse goes ultra instinct
Wow so we would like close to a nebula!? That's so cool
Too bad we got born in the wrong generation where it wont explode.
It's 640 light years away and it's gamma ray bursts are faced 20 degrees away from earth so we're safe
It's so far away it would still have an effect on Earth. Wow!?
Please, what music did you use? It was awesome, thank you!
Sometimes I thought, when in some nights Beteigeuze (as we call him) is very red: It already did 'explode'.
I will ask my Mother, if she will visit me again in my dreams She had to left me, and in her lifetime it was her conviction, that the 'interested ones' (we spoke about Carl Sagan that day) will visit after death the universe, and look at everything they wanted to know while being alive.
I know, she is still on her trip. ANd she will enjoy it so much. I miss her awful, but I am happy she has so much fun now SHe will tell me, how Betelgeuze is today :)
betelgeuse looks like a bright cheesy popcorn.
When it explodes, all the dead people will come out thier coffins from the ground and start dancing the Michael Jackson thriller song! Lol
Bitter-Juice
Michael Keaton is gonna be furious.
Even if a star were 2 light years away I wouldn’t worry unless it was a hyper giant capable of a gamma burst on nova.
I saw the blast in a dream. A very bright star in heaven. A halo around it, expanding and shrinking and growing wider every time until it collapses. As it collapses finally a flash. In an instant all flesh is charbroiled on the surface of Earth. Trees untouched, homes of wood intact. Such a powerful blast of energy. Our bodies transformed in an instant, just at it was written. Amazing event.
Something is wrong with that app. A nova nebula from 600 light years away wouldn’t engulf us ... nor would it fill the sky like that.
If you place Jupiter in Earth's orbit and made Earth one of it's moons, can you get it to survive? How many moons could be terrestrial also?
It could have gone supernova already as its over 600 light years away how would we know??
Paul Marshall science.
We don't, the possibility is there but it's extremely unlikely. It could have happened 641.999 years ago and we'll see it tomorrow or it might not happen for over a million years from now. There's no way to know when exactly it's going to happen.
Paul, you'd know approximately somewhere between 642.5 years from when it went Supernova ;)
I’d kill to be alive in a time when an astronomical event happens like this. I doubt it’d get nearly that big but it’ll still be a great light show
Hm
That brightness hurts my eyes im a dark room
What would happen if our solar system passed through a hydrogen cloud or a helium cloud
very interesting but can your show me about eta carina also.it wil be more interesting
It might have already gone supernova cause it takes light time to get places so
When I read Betelgeuse, in my mind I always pronounce it "Bee-teg-you-lea-z" because I don't read it right.
you forgot to set its axis of rotation 20 degrees off from earth...the gamma rays have a specific trajectory....
The time I’m watching this it went supernova I don’t remember when
100000 years well I suppose I have time to get another coffee
Earth becomes Nirn in 30000 years confirmed
Isn't betleguse the tip of the sword in the orion constilation?
Betelgeuse is a red super giant,which makes it a very large star, its in the top 10 largest stars that we know actually, so yes it is capable of turning into a black hole but it won't have on Universe Sandbox 2
rojre byfield betelguese is not from the top 10 giant stars
Even if so Betelgeuse is no where near a small star, it is a red supergaint
How long did it take you to learn how to use US2?
I learn new things all the time, but it's pretty quick to learn the basics, as the game is fairly streamlined.
about 7 days
for me it took 1 minute
