The distance of the red supergiant betelgeuse is approximately 643 light-years. if it were to explode as a supernova, it would be one of the brightest stars in the sky. right now, the brightest star other than the sun is sirius, with a luminosity of 26lsun and a distance of 8.6 light-years. how much brighter in our sky than sirius would the betelgeuse supernova be if it reached a maximum luminosity of 8.0×109lsun?
