A companion star …. Inside Betelgeuse’s atmosphere…. You think you know some stuff about the Universe but there’s always more surprises! 🙃🔭✨

Earlier studies found that Betelgeuse is spinning 100x faster than a supergiant should... but now it looks like that speed could be an illusion caused by enormous bubbles and froth on Betelgeuse's surface 🧪 🔭 www.scientificamerican.com/article/gian...

Scientists say Betelgeuse's behavior is oddly erratic and that is could go supernova at any time....

Hey @saskajanet.bsky.social is Atlas Betelgeuse’s companion star?

I wish I could post video over here, because this new animation of Betelgeuse is just spectacular. There is a seething cauldron of red-hot gas in the shoulder of Orion.

Yet something is puzzling astronomers — and Betelgeuse's close companion star, recently suggested by observations with our VLT, could be behind it.
