COSMIC MESSAGE

Betelgeuse, one of the brightest stars in the night sky, has faded to half its usual brightness over recent months. While such variability is normal for this supergiant, the recent dimming has led to renewed discussion about when it might go supernova. This image shows the star as imagined by a telescope.
