he coordinates given in the OP are not where Beetlegeuse is located. I cannot say for sure that the OP is giving the correct coordinates of the star he filmed, but I know the coordinates for Betelgeuse are 05h 55m 10.3053s, 07° 24′ 25.426. From watching the film and where it pans to it does not appear that this star is located in the same coordinates as Bettlegeuse. Maybe the OP can film again and show this star and where it is located in conjunction with Bettlegeuse?


Without date and time coordinates, these mean NOTHING! The earth and planets (and stars to a certain extent) change positions every day.

You can look at these "coordinates" tonight, then tomorrow or next week at the same time and you will see a completely different star field.

When will you guys give up or at least try to learn some basic astronomy?

In this video he clearly pans to Betelgeuse. He also claims that Sirius is our closest neighbor.

I know nothing on this topic so I am just looking at both sides and would like to form my own option if that is OK

Google Sky is not an astronomy program, it's a toy.

So is that image above valid and debunks this guys claim? do you confirm you know whos debunk?

Thanks

EDIT: After reviewing this guys youtube channel and profile which includes equipment spec, education etc etc, if his in error and you guys know it for sure and you all seem to share the same interest, why not drop him a line and let him know the error of his ways? Then we might get right to the bottom of this.

Food for thought.

EDIT 2: I just thought of something funny, well I thought it was, his YouTube Channel reads a lot more shall a say “normal” than most members on this site LOL, even the so called experts ;-)

Yeah, well. I was lazy. Good thing PennyQ had more energy than I do. The thing is when I see a youtube video with Planet X in the title, my eyes kind of glaze over. Point being, it is not an unknown planet.

Yeah, I think I am going to pay a visit to the astronomy dept. at the college here. I think it is very important to get to the bottom of this.


I think we went to the bottom of it, and found Betelgeuse or Mars
Planet X is a silly notion. More 'huey' to sell books.
