This is the Betelgeuse system, taken by the herschel telescope.(if we're lucky it might go supernova within our lifetime, but likely not)

A simple image, but suprisingly clear and illustrative.

Anyone have more like it? A lot of the space pictures taken are either exceedingly diffuse or cluttered with a billion objects.

Not Betelgeuse, but Rigel did.

More of Betelgeuse? Didn't find any with a quick look but here you go:

I have some pictures I and three fellow students have taken with the Nordic Optical Telescope. Should I dump them?

at cosmological levels, isnt time and space/distance the same shit?

I mean, if information can only travel at c, it doesnt really matter if something happens at a big distance now, or really close but a long time ago. We will only know at the same time.

Is this pronounced "beetle juice" or "belt-a-guise"? I have heard it both ways.

"battle-geese" or "belt-a-guess" are also acceptable
