Orion of the Bible and Beetlegeuse and Day of the Rapture


Orion of the Bible and Betelgeuse and Day of the Rapture

Do you remember the Movie Beetlegeuse with the Ghosts?

The red supergiant star Betelgeuse is getting ready to go supernova, and when it does Earth will have a front-row seat. The explosion will be so bright that Earth will briefly seem to have two suns in the sky. 
Key Word: Two Suns: Hopi Blue/Red Star??

Job_9:9  Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.
Job_38:31  Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
Amo_5:8  Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:

The star is located in the Orion constellation, about 640 light-years away from Earth. It's one of the brightest and biggest stars in our galactic neighborhood - if you dropped it in our Solar System, it would extend all the way out to Jupiter, leaving Earth completely engulfed.

Someday soon (astronomically speaking), it will run out of fuel, collapse under its own weight, and then rebound in a spectacular supernova explosion. When this happens, Betelgeuse will brighten enormously for a few weeks or months, perhaps as bright as the full moon and visible in broad daylight.
When will it happen? Probably not in our lifetimes. But, in fact, no one really knows. It could be tomorrow or a million years in the future.

The Orionid and Southern Taurid meteor showers are expected to peak this weekend, though this year, in 2018, the showers must compete with the glare of the brilliant waxing gibbous moon for much of the night. The advantage of watching in late Friday to Saturday morning rather than the following nights – is that there is less moonlight to obstruct the show. Some experts are expecting a possible upswing in Orionid activity in 2018. Because the peak is rather broad, skywatchers should be alert watching for three nights in a row (October 20-22). The Orionids stem from bits and pieces from the most famous of all comets, Comet Halley, and the Southern Taurids from comet 2P Encke. As the comets move through space, they leave debris in their wake that strikes Earth’s atmosphere most fully around October 20-22, every year.
