Video title: Mark you calendar!
Video content: The exact timing is unpredictable.
If it does happen, it actually happened 3,000 years ago which is still amazing to think we can look so far back in time.
I mean... you're not really looking back in time. You just have a delay. If your mail arrives late it isn't a time machine
@@geneticjen9312 Yes, you are looking back in time. Everything you see is looking back in time. Light has a finite speed and takes time to move from point A to point B. Your time machine analogy isn't accurate. Seeing the past and interacting with it are two different things.
@@geneticjen9312 awww, the idiot is trying to form a cogent thought.
Don't tell him that everything he's ever seen and experienced in his entire life has been slightly in the past, forget the starlight traveling trillions of miles at an unchanging, constant speed.
no, our eyes see in real time @@deanvernon3292 , silly monkey. 🤣😂🤣
🤣
Crazy to think that we are about to witness something that happened over 3000 years ago. I wonder what is happening there now? We may never know. If we discover another civilization it will be a vision from centuries long passed. We could send a message now and more than 60 generations would pass before we got an answer. Then if we respond it would take another 6000 years to get a response. Sounds like something legendary.
And how many more times has it happened in the mean time (I calculate about 37). Those photons are all on their way as well.
This was the speed with which we communicated with our pen friends in the 80's.
The fact its so quiet makes me wonder what everyone is hiding from.
@@laithamekir5778 Why would assume space is teeming with hiders and not teeming with communicators who are screaming at the top of their lungs but you're just not hearing them?
Do you believe an astronomer dog would encounter human radio transmissions and detect intelligent life?
Since nothing is shouting your name in your language directly into your face, it's _their_ fault?
Also to the op: generations are not measured in hundred year chunks. They overlap and are considered to be under 50 years.
You might like a book called “The Listeners” by James Gunn. Thought provoking glimpse into contact from a far race.
It's 3000 light years away .. it already exploded several dozen times before we see them in the coming weeks.
That true..all the hype something already happened...
@@Dexter68-eq6ei everything you see is delayed lol poor logic
@@kkevinj1 Yep even waving your hand in front of your face happens before you see it.
With how this was described, for all I know it could just be as visible as an extra start in the sky and unless you know what you are looking at you might not even notice it
This is NOT AN OFFICIAL NASA SITE,
Where does it say anything about being an OFFICIAL NASA WEBSITE? I see NASASPACENEWS as the channel name?
well no kidding lol
Okay?
I wish I was in a position to move back to the country. I miss darkness and stars and my telescope.
It is just a recurring nova. Not a supernova.
But, well, certainly impressive anyway.
5:01 yes, he mention it’s recurrent after here.
Micro nova
lmaooo moron couldn't even get 0:50 seconds in before commenting
It is a supernova, type Ia. Look it up.
@@user-yd9dm5kx8y Boom. Ownage!
I'll be sure to check on Betelgeuse every 10,000 years when ever I can.
I've set the alarm on my sybdial. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work too well at night.
Could you please post on here when you see something, so the rest of us know it's happening.
It will be all over the news so until the announcement I'll just get on with every day life🍷😁
This info just made me 10,000 times brighter 😎
What's really neat about that much extra light, that close to home, is what it might also illuminate as far away as us, or just a little bit further, plus further and further, if it is not normally illuminated.
I hope everyone who can closely inspect for "invisible" anomalies, is watch the sky on the "other" side of the planet that night.
Boötes is pronounced as two syllables; the two Os are separate.
So...
wouldn't that make it *THREE syllables*?

@@smartalek180 Damn, you're right.
Thanks I'll be sure to remember that the next time it comes up in conversation
Thank you for this clear explanation. I read this in the news but it was very superficial and I was wondering how they could know so precisely when a supernova was about to happen. Actually it's not a supernova but something even more fascinating.
Summer here so 24 hours of light. Will start seeing stars end of August.
Drive to the Antarctic Circle and watch the skies non-stop. It will be worth it. This little flicker of light in the sky will be amazing!
The amount of people in this comment section who very clearly didn't watch the video is absurd
Because like most physicists he goes on and on. The same reason we fell asleep in Physics class in high school. Nothing they do is simple and straight forward and always requires some relating of the history of time and stuff.
@@rcstl8815 that's because it's necessary to understand the topic
@@pixelsamurai5086 Maybe for people that woke up last night. But I forget the average IQ and schooling level. I understand and just wanted to know when it may happen.
@@rcstl8815 the original reason i left the comment is people not watching the video and assuming its betelgeuse

Sounds like the Blue Star Kachina, let's get this party started 🔵
Can’t wait to see this 🥰
A nova that will do no more than reach a magnitude that places it at 92 of the top 100 brightest stars in the sky. We won’t observe anything beyond a point of light
TLDR:.. TCRB: T Corona Borealis had outbursts in 1866, 1946, an 80 year cycle.
it can be found between the constellations Hercules and Bootes.
the video says that watching the area of Corona Borealis over the next few weeks will increase your chances of seeing the event.
I'll believe it when i see it !
No one gets excited when I have an outburst...😂
Thumbnail text is misleading. It's a predictable and recurring nova .. not a supernova. Amazing anyway.
Probably not as misleading as the visuals.
Wrong. It is a supernova, type Ia, that occurs when a white dwarf accrets material from another body until it reaches about 1.4 solar masses and then it detonates. A supernova.
The super Nova information is at 5: 15
with my luck, it will be cloudy....
You won''t miss much.
@@simonzinc-trumpetharris852 maybe, but still would liek to see it, I have a telescope, it's not a big one, but it's not a small one either.
"June Gloom" where I live.
Same here. I have missed several things including a couple blood moons due to clouds/fog. But when I do get to witness something, it is all the more awesome.
Same
@NASASpaceNews Please make the effort to pronounce the names of the constellations correctly. Boötes is not pronounced "boots".
Nope, it's booty lol
Time will tell!
Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
Just because it has been recorded twice about 80 years apart does not imply it will happen in the next few weeks!
Wait till our star does, as it does every 36,000 years
@@rastaboy_gamesnstuff7778 huh?
@@rastaboy_gamesnstuff7778 What are you talking about?
Exactly!
I was wondering about that, too. Patterns are only possible after 3 or more occurrences.
Been waiting a yr or better for this one..but I believe we .ay see it b4 I die
Appreciate your channel.
afaik it's not a supernova, but a regular nova. There's a difference.
Bato juice?
Ohh I can’t wait to see this.. might have to drive to Death Valley or Joshua Tree
There's so much Light Pollution from my city I can't remember the last time I saw Any stars. I saw one thing some time ago that I found out was Venus and another I found that was Jupiter. Otherwise there's usually Nothing to see but the Moon most nights.
Don't worry, it's so bright here in the north when the sun shines at night that it doesn't even show up here.
Are you in India?
@@Kube_Dog US east coast city.
"Boots" - Boh-oh-tes, you experts.
"next 100,000 years." 'k, I'll pencil that in my calendar. lol
Another blip from the cosmo to throw earth into an alternative Spidey universe…
it was exploding 3,000 years ago several times but we just view the first 3,000 years of light travels
All info on the web says September for the T CrB event. Hope they announce it!
Until September. Not September
For northern hemisphere viewers only .
How log will it takes?
You know time is a perception for us.
Time goes backwards and actually sideways.
Light for instance has been proven by science to go backwards through time.
What they don't get yet is time is going in all directions through the light. So now we have the Observer issue in physics.
And the questions remain when was the video made and what time of which day?
Burst now and see it in 3000 years.
I'll watch some shorts in mean whilr.
Misleading to use the word "supernova" in the thumbnail and suggest you'll see an explosion and not what appears to be a new star. Remember a nova and supernova are totally different things
Something is missing: how long this brightness will last?
A few weeks.
Two seconds. If you miss it, you'll have to wait another 80 years for the next one.
I did a search and this is a copy and paste of the results.
"The outburst from T Coronae Borealis, also known as the "Blaze Star", is expected to be visible to the naked eye for a few days to a little less than a week. Binoculars may allow for visibility for over a week. The outburst will occur when a white dwarf, or dead star, accumulates enough hydrogen-rich material from a red giant star, which will trigger a thermonuclear reaction. During the event, the star is expected to increase in magnitude from +10 to +2, making it roughly as bright as Polaris, the North Star. The outburst will release tens of thousands of times more energy than the sun does in a year, but it won't pose any danger to Earth because it's too far away. "
As bright as the North Star doesn't seem so impressive compared to the visuals given in the video.
@@rocketraccoon1976 8000 years...
Ya this isn't the first time this channel's been very misleading. I don't think it's actually affiliated with nasa, and if it's not it needs to be removed. If it is, that's unfortunate. Either way I'm blocking it after this one.
"Visible to the naked eye in weeks!"
...Yeah, somewhere between one and one million weeks!
Star Walk 2 phone app will show you Corona Borealis very quickly. And how I located Corona Borealis.
It’s more than a periodic nova it’s a literal Minecraft material creation machine..🤯
The music at 2:10 reminds me of something out of Final Fantasy VII
T Coronae Borealis in the constellation Corona Borealis. Please get your star names right.
Since its visual impact wasn't commented upon other than being visible to the naked eye, it appears it'll be as visually unimpressive as Hally's Comet was in '86.
Hey Look a Star... Uhhh, which one? That one. There? No THERE! Nevermind.
Anton Petrov brought this up weeks ago and setup a pool to who can nail it on the day, 😄 i guessed September 12-14th 2024, even though it happened a long time ago, it's just observable soon, hopefully
So who said it's only weeks away? We're not predicting weather here. The nova could be 1-3 years away and I'm sure this vid will be forgotten when it does happen. 80 years from 1945 is 2025, so we're not even at 80 yet.
He said they noticed a dip in brightness similar to one observed in 1945 just before it happened.
That is what is leading to this prediction.
Few of the trustworthy youtubers I watch said that it's almost certain that this will happen by the end of the year, and that it's most likely to appear any day between now and in 5 months. So this is kinda clickbaity but kinda true also.
@@antonio_fosnjar yeah, we'll have to see. Off the top of my head without really researching, I'd guess mid-2025
Correct, it is now in a Dip. 1 of many. Nova 1946 + 79/80 years gives next year
@pauls5745 My guess, December this year. Ler's see who will be closer with their guess.
4:03 _"boots"_ 🤣
I just looked it up elsewhere. Sometime between February 2024 to October 2026 is the predicted time for the nova to occur so a pretty wide timeframe. Just hope it gets publicized when it does happen because I’ve certainly not got the time to be viewing every night.
Old estimate. The modern one is from now to September
If you say it 3 times does it appear?
Yes I've been waiting for this Stellar Explosion visible to the Naked Eyes, I really will mark my wall calendar! Is this Betelgeuse Star Explosion what's happen in weeks wow!? Sorry I tought it's a Betelgeuse. TCRB sounds like TCRI from TMNT! 😅😮
Not Betelgeuse the event is TCRB look for Vega then direct your eyes up and to the left 😁. Orion however. I see every night before I go to work and I ask it is today the day you blow up? 😆
@@moondra3481 Crazy to think though. Betelgeuse has already exploded centuries ago. We are just going to observe the light from the event soon.
Not betelguise, betelguise is more likely to explode in a few thousand years than it is in a few weeks
Yes today's the Day! @@moondra3481
Okay sorry I was wrong
Then what happened a few weeks ago in the same area?
Can we expect the arrival of energetic particles after the visual nova?
Since even the light from it takes over 3,000 years to get to us and the nova happens every 80 years or so we have already been bathed in a few dozen particles over the last few centuries. Simply put I don't think anyone will notice this event if they aren't looking in that direction at the right time.
@fanman421 3000 year old light.
@fanman421 I know, it's just interesting that we are discussing the future somewhere else even though that future is in fact the very distant past relatively speaking.
Neutrinos for sure. Not so sure about other particles tho
@@brendanwood1540 It surely isn't that interesting that stuff takes time to get here. It's just a delay. When your mail arrives late, it isn't a time machine
Please tell us, will the south América be able to watch this event?
Yed
Betelgeuse could go supernova at any time in the next 100,000 years? Man, it’s really getting down to the wire.
It will occur exactly at 12:00 noon..........somewhere on Earth.
Now that is going out on a limb. Very nice!
I seen the sky turn into colored static before
Link to latest observation data??
Check light curves from AAVSO
what does that binary system look like now, does JWST or other telescopes have a detailed picture? This animations are great eye candy but I would like to see the real picture for the before and after shots or maybe I missed it through all the simulations.
unfortunately i dont think you would get the image you expect from JWST. just think of the pic of Uranus and Neptune, how small do they look, now think thats in our own solar system in which neptune is roughly 0.00047 light years away. This system is like what 3000 light years away? JWST wont be able to zoom in enough nor have the resolution needed to see this event with detail. you have to remember the images of Nebulae from JWST are of celestial objects a good few thousand lightyears across, another thing any Supernovae from JWST are of "Super"novae not a normal nova which are much smaller, i believe all you may get from JWST if they do point it at the event is a graph with a few numbers. but id like to be proven wrong, this is just my theory anyways, not based on actual knowledge just my understanding, who knows
"The 'geuse is loose!"
So ,it says everything but the date
I presume JWST will be focusing in on this event. Are there any exoplanets involved, I wonder, OR, would previous events have vapourized any plaetary body in a stable orbit?
So… mark my calendar for upcoming weeks. It’s a good thing that I don’t have anything to do nowadays, so I can spend all of my time watching the sky!
WAIT… 🤔
👏👏👏
If you've ever waited for a pizza baked in a microwave, you'll understand how astronomers are eagerly awaiting this TCB explosion.
So the TCB will taste terrible and make you fat?
So they are not looking forward to it.. ?
how long will it last?
A couple of days
I'll believe it when I see it.
how long will it be visible for?
About two days
The images and recreation that you are showing are not what we are going to see, we are only going to see one more star...
No.
If you can see two stars instead of one at this distance your eyes must be telescopes 😂
While you are already at it, could you check if there's really reflectors on the moon to confirm the muricans really went up there?
Has someone or something led you to believe everything you see in a video you will then see in your life? Because if your answer to that question is yes, then you have been misled.
Too bad I live in a bright sky area, where I don't really get to see much in the way of stars. Plus, it's very humid this time of year, so water vapor blocks visibility even more.
In the wintertime, when it's clear, I can actually see the Orion Nebula and Andromeda galaxy with the naked eye.
I recently bought a pair of binoculars at a yard sale, and it helps dramatically.
I'll give it a try though, once I locate the proper part of the sky that this binary star system resides in, and see if I might get lucky.
Can you just tell me a website or something that can help me locate the nova!
Cuz I live in a bright city and stars are getting harder to locate....
Sky Map on Google Play Store
In the outro ''The exact timing remains ucertian requiring regular observation''. Means you have to MARK all the days on your calendar including Feb. 29. Another Click bait.
How long will the event last? A few hours? Days?
72 years.
1-5 days, depending on light pollution
My question is: Nuclear explosion does that include gamma and x-rays....etc? Will this do anything to our satellites?
Boots, lol. It's 'Boo Oh Tees'. Gronk.
Just received an email, this repeating nova is going to be a little late
What they are showing is hilarious.
This star will go from being barely visible with binoculars to naked eye visible, almost as bright as the North Star, Polaris.
When could I see it is the question lol😂
4:02
Look out for beacons when this nova happens
This will nova on June 18th 0715gmt,, of course I'm guessing ....
Lottery hit is more probable than seeing Betelgeuse explode in real time.
Ya pretty sure light pollution will make it a moot point.
Interesting fact during a blackout in Cali people called reporting lights in the sky turned out to be the 🌌
Unfortunately this wasn't very helpful. No discussion of how bright. No simulation of what it might look like. No mention of how long it might last. Will it appear like any other star for mere minutes, or will it be brighter than venus and last for hours or even days? Will it be a point of light, or appear larger?
Apparently a bit brighter than the north star, so not SUPER bright.
Understanding the interaction here, puts to question the validity of a Dysons Sphere and using it as a theoretical measurement for a civilizations intelligence. It creates more questions about the intelligence of believing a Dysons Sphere is a “good idea” for a measurement standard. 😢 like religion, its belief without validation.
No mention of how long it might last?
1-5 days, depending on light pollution
Not a supernova, just a nova. You'd think a channel dedicated to this sorta stuff would either know better or be above clickbait, whichever the case may be.
B4 I transition. My bad
4 turning omen? 🤔
Unlike pictured, it won't ever be visible near the moon.
Is it true that Beetlejuice and Orion already blew up
I doubt it
Can this be seen in the Southern Hemisphere?
Most of it yes
Only if you have a line of sight with Polaris.
If it reoccurs every 80 years and last seen in 1946 wouldn’t be visible in 2026 ?
Don't ask NASA math questions like that.
Approximately*
You keep saying super nova and it keeps not happening.
I don't think it means what you think it means.
