Anonymous Coward User ID: 39505780 Germany 05/08/2013 08:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Supernova explosions may have been responsible for some of the mass extinctions that we see in our historical record. Several times in the past, we know that most living things on Earth all died quite suddenly. Some of these - for example, the dinosaurs - were probably caused by asteroid impacts into the Earth. But some may have been caused by the radiation from a supernova explosion. |

MutantMessiah User ID: 11481360 United States 05/08/2013 08:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.nasa.gov] "Ground-based observatories are monitoring the location of GRB 130427A and expect to find an underlying supernova by midmonth." Last Edited by MutantMessiah on 05/08/2013 08:30 AM Consider the possibility that you order yourself into being from chaos... You do this, always, in all ways. This "ordering" has resulted in the possibilities you're experiencing, here, now. In each experience you've ever had, more and more of "this" reality is generated logically from your previous experience. Your observation of this unfolding of order and chaos is reality. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 39505780 Germany 05/08/2013 08:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day 08/05/2013 shows the Supernova and says: "as there is a possibility that the glow of a classic supernova will soon emerge." Quoting: Niemand Namely between the 10th and the 12th of May 2013 ... [link to gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov] Explanation: A tremendous explosion has occurred in the nearby universe and major telescopes across Earth and space are investigating. Dubbed GRB 130427A, the gamma-ray burst was first seen by the Earth-orbiting Swift satellite in high energy X-rays and quickly reported down to Earth. Within three minutes, the half-meter ISON telescope in New Mexico found the blast in visible light, noted its extreme brightness, and relayed more exact coordinates.
