THE super-giant red star Betelgeuse in the constellation of Orion is destined to explode and when that happens we will see two suns in the sky. This could happen today or in the next 100,000 years, scientists suggest.

Earlier a group of scientists had predicted this may happen in 2012, however they corrected their statements and gave a cautionary time frame.

So if we are lucky enough we will see it in our lifetime.
