Ars Technica writes Earth-shattering kabooms: A supernova in our lifetimes? "No star that will go supernova in the foreseeable future is close enough to the Solar System to pose a risk to us. But what stars might be close enough to provide us with a lovely show—and a great example for study? Here are just a few, all within the Milky Way, with at least a slim chance of going boom before humans go extinct from other causes."
Pretty pictures included. I often look up deliberately to see if Betelgeuse has exploded yet.
