Hi sci, would you enjoy your two suns?

'Betelgeuse, one of the night sky's brightest stars, is losing mass, indicating it is collapsing. It could run out of fuel and go super-nova at any time.'

We're all fucking dead. I guess the 2012 shit is right.

"In fact, a neutrino shower could be beneficial to Earth.'

'UPDATE: To clarify, the news.com.au article does not say a neutrino shower could be beneficial to Earth'

Worst fucking paper ever.

>UPDATE II: In a follow-up piece on news.com.au, Dr. Carter stressed that there is no way of knowing when the star may go supernova. U.S. astronomer Phil Plait added, "Betelgeuse might go up tonight, or it might not be for 100,000 years. We're just not sure."

Confirmed.

YES IT DOES, ONE PARAGRAPH ABOVE YOU FUCKING IDIOTS!! RIGHT THERE!! Oh my god, so much hate for the huffington post right now. I love how the second update basically says, 'by the way, this is all speculation and it might happen next year or in a million years, we don't know.' Great news, guys.

>> No.2695539

So basically it's saying that there's stars in the sky, and one of them could explode into a supernova at anytime, and if one did it would look bright. Well fucking duh, you piece of shit paper.
