News said it’s going to be a million miles from earth which they consider close!

Wow, that's four times as far as the moon is to the earth! Will we even be able to see it? I've always wanted to see an actual asteroid. Guess I will have to wait five years until that big sucker gets close to hitting us.

"Betelgeuse is due to go supernova. In the simplest terms, that means it’s going to explode in an extremely dramatic way, easily visible from Earth. Scientists think it will happen some time in the next 100,000 years. Yep — it’s a long time in human terms, but in cosmic terms, that’s a blink of an eye."

I'd love to be around for that lesson

We watched it too. I was surprised when we moved here that we could see the launches at this distance. We've been Florida 30 years and it never gets old!

You don’t remember Hail boop asteroid a few yrs. back when some nut case convinced a bunch of people to commit suicide so they could ride it? These people must of been very slow minded. You could. See the tail on that one for about 2 weeks! You’re old enough to live in TV, so you should remember seeing that one.
