    If Betelgeuse went supernova it might look a little brighter than Venus in the night sky.

    the concern is not the super-nova or whatever stuff comes out of it.. but a blackhole that is 1300 light years from earth.. well, that just sounds close when everything else in space is measured in millions/billions.

    That sounds really cool.

    Though wouldn't that be like an extra dose of UV rays or something? Meaning extra chance of skin cancer? Or does it not really make a difference?

    It'd be weird for it to not get dark for a few days...
