The Strange Behavior of Betelgeuse Continues.

Betelgeuse, the red giant star, has been growing uncharacteristically bright since the Great Dimming event in 2019. It has hit a recent peak of 156 percent of its normal brightness, triggering speculation of an imminent supernova. However, scientists believe that its current behavior is more likely a bit of ongoing wobbliness following the 2019 dimming, and the star will return to normal within a decade. Betelgeuse is one of the most interesting stars in the sky, located around 700 light-years from Earth, and is expected to continue to live out its twilight millennia relatively peacefully for some time to come.
