Description
In a quieter walk than usual, Chris and Mr Max tell the story of Betelgeuse - the armpit of the Great One, and the star that might one day provide a spectacular supernova. They also encourage you to find the constellation of Orion, the signpost to the winter sky, enjoy the odd bit of chicken and mourn the loss of the bone they found on Tuesday.
There's a great guide to Orion here: https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/advice/skills/orion-constellation-best-targets-observe/ and you can see some spectacular pictures of Betelgeuse taken with the Very Large Telescope here: https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso2003/
