No real need to worry. For one thing, it could be thousands of years before it explodes. Also, the radiation will be lesser than that of our sun (no gamma bursts, very little UV). However, the only real thing to worry about is the brightness. It will brighten to our sun's amount of... brightness (I guess) over two weeks, but it will stay there for 2-3 months before starting to dim.Stammer said:Honestly, my biggest fear is Betelgeuse...
No, not the movie! The star! It's about to explode (or rather, it already has we just haven't seen it yet). When it does, scientists speculate it's going to be so big that even though it's like 900 light years away or something, it's going to look as big as the sun in the sky. And it's going to be that big for about 2 weeks.
That worries me! The nuclear radiation, the intense heat... Either one of those things could potentially pose a great threat to the planet. Even if it was only half of amount of heat and radiation that we get from our sun, that's going to have a massive impact on our world.

No really. He's known as "The Question", a man who suspects and questions everything with rigorous detail. And this was taken from Justice League Unlimited, so you'd have to sift through that for all the relevent episodes.rutger5000 said:Who is that guy, and where can I watch more from himFalloutJack said:Ah, here we go.
