With what?

How many light years away is it exactly?

Gamma radiation burst will crisp up the surface pretty hard

It's 640 light years away.

640. It's basically 8 houses down the street in galactic terms

A mere 642.5 light years.

It hasnt gone supernova.
Sauce? Cant find anything confirming this.

You think with the right technology we might live long enough to see it?

oh so really soon? scary

2nd

it had to be done

It's luminosity swings have been wildly changing over a slow and steady (year long) cycle for centuries. Last week it shrunk towards it's record minimum in only days.

It's begun

ah yeah we're doomed

>so really soon
640 years ago it seems

You won't be alive to see it. Why do you care?

We have a 76 year life-span. We were doomed before we were born.

>fucking finally
adios

oh alright, no panic then

it probably already went super nova ~600 years ago tho...

If you can see the change in light rays with your eyes, any other kind of rays could also have reached you if travelling at the same speed of light. Figure that one out.

Gamma ray bursts travel at super luminal speeds so we would just get fried before we notice anything confirming a supernova

ITT: old school anons use relativism to dismiss impending doom. Light is only the cosmic speed limit... for light. Electric effects pay no mind to distance, it's literally not mentioned in any electric equation. Electricity does not travel at the speed of light, it is instant. Regardless of distance.

The release of voltage from a solar anode flows along plasma pathways to the cathodes at the great attractors instantly.

Truth be told, we have no experience of such electrical release so close to our system so we don't know what will happen, but nothing surer we will feel the result well before we see it.

Awesome. So like one day we all just be doing our shit and suddenly feel like we've spent a hour in the microwave huh

Light is the speed limit for all things, dipshit. Electrons are electricity, and electrons do indeed take time to move, though they do move quickly, but not so quickly that it is "instantaneous". Fucking moron. Go back to 5th grade science.

well we may not feel anything and just vaporize on the spot

>imagine you still think lightspeed is the limit lol now that is some 5th grade thinking

It's likely not going to be harmful. The gamma rays and such and going to be extremely weakened going through the cosmos.

It is the speed limit. Jesus, just google it.

>5th grade science never changes

Show me one electric equation that calls for time to be involved.

The only people who imply speed limits to electricity are relativistic devotees determined to plug holes in thier system

ignore him user, pretty sure he's on some electric universe shit

Yeah, you're right. This is Sup Forums after all.

if its 640 light years away didn't it go supernova 640 light years ago then and we barely noticed it

I seen a cool vid on yt not long ago that explained how electrons move in a quantum dimension kind of thing. Im too dumb to understand but he proves how they move in more than one direction at a time therefore theyre not limited by speed

isnt there like one cosmologist who supports it and everyone pokes holes in it all the time? im a laymen so i really dont know or care, but my rudimentary glance gave me the impression that it's being stuck with because someone didnt want to be wrong.

i have no stake in fancy space science, im just a dumbass engineer.

Nothing travels at super-luminal speeds, you retarded backseat scientist.

the just google fucking gamma radiation burst and actually read papers that came out this year yeez

No: The people who insist electricity travels at light speed are any tech who uses a time-domain reflectometer to tell where a cable is broken, down to the foot. Or any digital chip designer. Or anybody who designs GPS receivers. You are full of shit.

the whole universe only consists of a single electron anyway so why all the fuss

>not one
Except that's hyperbolic and false. There are hundreds now getting behind it... because it explains the universe simply and completely and without fudge factors.

The reason there is still resistance is because mainstream science is so heavily invested in a gravitational universe. It will throw too many careers into the bin. Well it will make too many people throw out decades of work and start again. Pride and investment prevents people from letting go. But they are starting to wake up.

Nope. Cable breaks are determined using capacitance, and only works in paired or nested cables. Try again.

Good. Fry this toilet. Probably mass electrical failure then gamma ray destruction.

the universe is flat

Goes on forever? It might.

GAMMA RAYS ARE FUCKING INVISIBLE LIGHT YOU FUCKING BRAINDEAD FAGGOT

That would be hott

instant,unavoidable,painless death. o what a dream

yea but it's a burst of it you mongoloid

Guys do not worry, we live in a blackhole anyway. Everything that happens here in fact happened to us but in another universe, and now we're just on our merry way to another universe, where everything will start again. And again. And again.

And again.

can someone explain this to me? I don't watch rick and morty

Not bored yet but that sounds like it could get boring.

If it goes supernova we'll be fine (it should collapse into a black hole, but whatever) we're well outside of the danger zone for a star of that mass.

If it releases a GRB? We'll more than likely be fine anyway, It's axial points don't point at earth at any point in Betelgeuse's revolution so any GRB from it is going to miss us.

Stop freaking out about things you can't stop anyway, you fucking babies

Well, the part when we get out of the white hole isn't going to be fun. But at least all the information is going to be resucked into fresh new, delicious primordial soup. What's sad is we'll be the same losers, again.

In 640 years don't forget your sun screen.

>the earth is 6000 years old god just put the stars really far away

Yall are dummy thick headed if you think that gamma burst rays as far away as it is would harm us in any way

And if we are seeing betelgeuse go supernova, we would have already been fried.

O shit that's right if we see it then it happened in the past. So that explains what happened to all the advanced civilizations on earth 640 years ago.

yes we are currently just observing it going throught typical changes before giong supernova

640 yeahs and we'll be out of the solar system. Gotta think subspace and warp

FTL drives.

wait are we 100% sure the actual star pattern is her dying?

we'll need a great ethnic cleansing before getting warp. No way in hell we'll get it with niggers sucking up trillions

nothing is 100% sure ever. But stars shrinking fast is a dead giveaway.

It's not 640 years. Light years are a mesure of distance, not time.
In terms of time, it's more like 12 thousand years before the shockwave reaches us.

BETELGEUSE!

BETELGEUSE!!

I read once that even a quasar thousands of lightyears could affect us if the energy stream it puts off shot directly toward us, of course, space could just be a spooky place like Gehenna full of spooky demon magic. We don't really know anything at all about where we live.

we'd get fried because of the photons hitting earth, not the "shockwave" wich are generally not so existent in a vacuum

Some light can burn. I know this from using a magnifying glass, ya don't even have to trust scientists to know this.

I'll worry when Elon does.

>I read once that even a quasar thousands of lightyears could affect us if the energy stream it puts off shot directly toward us
Which on it's own sounds frightening, but when put in context it'd be like trying to find one dead pixel in a screen the size of the solar system.

>we'd get fried because of the photons hitting earth
Photons don't hit anything. They have no mass.

Lest we not forget omuamua the rock that came hurtling towards our sun, slowed its trajectory and went swooping past our planet til slingshotting back to where it came from.

That's what you WANT us to think!

but since the universe is so big there are quadrilions of quasars looking for the pixel simultaniously

No, what I want you to think is that lizard people don't exist and your will is your own.

but they have energy

Not really, the universe is a lot emptier than most people think.
Even a large chunk of stars we see in the sky haven't existed for millions of years.

Nor that time Bruce Willis saved us all by drilling into that big rock ...just in the nick of time sacrificing himself so we can all live ...feels..love that guy lulz

Yes great story, wud fuck his daughter. But one is fake one is not

>the universe is a lot emptier than most people think.
Funnily enough the reverse is proving true. Last year hubble released the missing light survey that showed the universe is teeming with dust and plasma, making the filamentary structure much more dense than previously thought.

Voyager burst through the heliopause a few years ago and found a dense stream of ionized plasma, all heading in the same direction.

Its all starting to click for those paying attention.

We're not discussing dust though, now are we?

I'm onto you! We will expose your demonic alien plot to make a globalist portal near our frogs to weaponize the GAY!

Attached: scrn1.jpg (1920x1080, 211K)

Have you seen that galaxies also seem to follow these filaments? it's quite interesting.

Who the fuck told you about weaponized gay? That was supposed to be a secret. We're on to you. We're coming to get you.

Firstly op is full of shit, it hasn't been noticed yet if it has happened but yes it'd take 640 years to reach our eyeballs, it'd be brighter than the moon likely for a while, visible during the day, and scientists predict there will be no gamma burst anyways. Current estimates of it happening is several 10,000 to several hundred thousand years, but honestly it could be tommorow for all we know. I hope it'd be soon, it'd be an awesome sight.

Joe, if Elon said it you would be on your knees. Please have Eddie Bravo at the next Elon podcast. Show him the same respect you showed Alex!

No, main thoughts are it's core isn't dense enough to form a black hole. But yeah, whatever.

I like this post user

Yes, cosmic dust / ionized plasma are the building blocks of our universe, and thier structure is indicative to the way it actually works. The fact they follow a linear pathway that directly links our sun through the galaxy then through universe to one common electrode point, that also links back out to every other sun is... interesting.

I wonder if Betelguese is closer to the cathode than us? Maybe all the discharge comes through us, maybe it goes in the opposite direction.

the supernovas that where outshining the moon where 10.000 light years away. Beetlejuice being only 640, and taking the inverse square law into account, will most deffinitly outshine the sun for a while

You'll never find me, Mr. Reynolds has wrapped my precious nugget with his protective reflective powers, hah! Bet you didn't expect that and neither did the FBCIA! You'll never find me now Obama!
