Its pronounced Beatle Juice

(the small white dot to the very left under antares is the relative size of our sun)

Betelgeuse, in addition to being a Michael Keaton character, is also a star in what constellation?
Just don't say it 3 times in a row
Answer: (Drag mouse from left arrow to right)
>  It is in Orion. More specifically, if you think about orion facing you from the sky, Betelgeuse is his proper right shoulder ("stage left" so to speak). 
It is the 8th-10th brightest star in the sky, depending on your source. 
It is a red giant and is so big you could fit almost 180,000,000 (180 Million) suns in it. 
Or you could put 220,000,000,000,000 (220 TRILLION) Earths in it.   <
