Then I'll win my bet with Dan.
So, what if Betelgeuse goes supernova in your lifetime?

I forgot what the wager was
I thought Betelgeuse was one of the belt stars and Orion's pants would fall down when it goes supernova.
No, no, no.... but I wouldn't go anywhere near the star named "Pinto".

You don't need a link. It's a star. They're wondering when it's going to explode. The world probably has more problems than ever before & they're speculating about when a star will explode.
First world problems huh?
Yeah, he told me about it in a pub one evening. Good stuff.
+1 on unless it happened a bit more than 630 years ago, we likely won't see it in our lifetimes.
I wonder what it will do to these 2 jewels over time.
