Why is Betelgeuse Dimming? With Dr. Edward Guinan

About this episode

Why is Betelgeuse dimming? Is Betelgeuse about to explode? Betelgeuse is a variable red super giant star located in the Orion constellation. Most estimations have it going supernova within the next 100,000 years, but could it be sooner? Dr. Edward Guinan has been studying Betelgeuse and other variable stars from Villanova for over 40 years. He joins John Michael Godier to discuss his recent updates on the fainting and dimming of Betelgeuse.Updates on the "Fainting" of Betelgeusehttp://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=13365Want to support the channel?Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/EventHorizonShowFollow us at other places!Website: https://www.eventhorizonshow.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/jmgeventhorizonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jmgeventhorizon/Music featured on Event Horizonhttps://stellardrone.bandcamp.com/https://migueljohnson.bandcamp.com/https://leerosevere.bandcamp.com/https://aeriumambient.bandcamp.com/
