What Will Happen When Betelgeuse Implodes?

The video discusses Beetlejuice, a red supergiant star visible as Orion's left shoulder. It's cooler than most stars but has a massive diameter. Beetlejuice is expected to explode in a supernova, though this could take thousands of years. The video explains the lifecycle of massive stars, focusing on nuclear fusion and the transition to a supernova. Recent dimming of Beetlejuice was observed, initially thought to signal an impending supernova, but later attributed to dust obscuring the star. Beetlejuice has since returned to normal brightness. The video encourages viewers to appreciate Beetlejuice in the night sky.
