What's Going on With Betelgeuse?

Interesting stuff.

Betelgeuse continues to dim, diminishes to 1.506 magnitude

Betelgeuse keeps getting dimmer, and everyone is wondering what exactly that means. The star will go supernova at the end of its life, but that's not projected to happen for tens of thousands of years or so. So what's causing the dimming?

man.... we as hunters are not even settled on whether the moon phase impacts rutting activity. Now we may have to account for a supernova explosion impacting three years of rutting?!

Good luck figuring that out Charles Alsheimer.

It is due to the speed of rotation of the 10 million wind machines and the reflection of the 50 million solar panels that have been constructed.

Oh, and then enhanced by climate change.
