I noticed at the bottom of Peter Tuthill's main page he speaks about research opportunities...I soo wish I would've continued my college education...I would probably give up all my material possessions and live in a hut, in the same clothes every day, with no hot water, just to be able to research this stuff :) I have soo many theories floating around in my *brian* I need to communicate... Please add to the discussion. ^^lol...I guess I'm referring to the 'discussion' in my head... Last Edited by Tampa Heather on 09/11/2014 06:27 PM What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger... |

[link to math.ucr.edu] SNIPPET <10% But when silicon fuses, it forms highly stable nuclei like iron that don't want to fuse any further. So, silicon burning is the end of the line. And it doesn't last long! For example, a star 25 times the mass of the Sun is expected to spend about 5 to 10 million years burning hydrogen, 0.5 to 1 million years burning helium, 500 to 1000 years burning carbon, 6 to 12 months burning oxygen... but just a day or so burning silicon! I'm only about half way through this one...I will be back to edit post. Last Edited by Tampa Heather on 09/11/2014 07:26 PM What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger... |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54634496 wasn't there a carrington sized event, in july 2012 ?? that just missed us by a week ?? and this one, is bigger than that ???? They are pushing the fear factor, which has got my attention, usually they don't report until days have went by. I'll be interested to see the stats in the morning not sure how I feel about this event without exact numbers, lots of ins and outs.lol Don't be fazed.... I know most don't want to hear my opinion here, short of simple and Isis, but I felt my ears ringing at the time of lift off... We are dealing with particles that are faster than the speed of light...remember the link I sent you? Our star just got 'charged' up by the Wolf-Rayet star near by and 'reacted'... This time...no big deal...except for earthquakes etc...not for USA...we have weapons to 'divert' the energy... Take what you will for what I post...I am being 100% serious right now...

Really like the passive (IMO) then parading science theory as your base facts in understanding. You're a mess. |

I'm really curious in your opinion...do you have an explanation for the 100 >Mev particles as seen on GOES? Do you have a workable theory on giant planet formation from gravitational instability (likely caused by a Wolf-Rayet star colliding) instead of the antiquated core accretion theory?

This big digression was just to set the stage. I've sketched what stars of up to 25 solar masses will do, but remember, Wolf-Rayets are a lot bigger: they begin life at about 60 solar masses. And astronomy resembles opera in this way: the bigger the star, the more noise they make in their final scene. So, the stuff about supernovae was just to whet your appetite. ^^THIS guy is hilarious for a nerd :) Ofcourse I have a thing for nerds... What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger... |

So was a telescope in Japan. They saw the optical afterglow of the γ-ray burster and watched how its brightness changed with time. And within 24 hours, a spectrograph on a telescope in Chile made detailed readings of the spectrum, measuring the redshift (z = 0.1685) and thus the distance of the burst, and seeing signs of radioactive nickel - about 1/3 of a solar mass of the stuff, according to one estimate! Later, more telescopes probed the event in different ways. SAME LINK AS LAST POST: [link to math.ucr.edu] What the author is talking about in bold is the classic blue 'glow' of Cherenkov radiation... [link to en.m.wikipedia.org] Many of you see this some times when you close your eyes to go to sleep. This same phenomena has been reported by miners deep underground.

They orbit the galactic center along highly elliptical paths, and on average one revolution takes 300 million years. Recent estimates indicate that about 150 globulars exist in the Milky Way (the Andromeda Galaxy has been estimated to contain approximately 500 globular clusters). ^^THIS talks about Charles Messier and his discovery on planet formation due to gravitational instability. IMO, Saturn was our old star when we humans inhabited Mars...this was waay before we through the \Z/ last time :) IE: before our current star was born.

Through the Fire User ID: 62535644 United States 09/11/2014 11:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hey OP thanks for this post. I just got out of my AST 102 class and we just went over WR stars! interesting stars they are. So rare. The nuclear fusion overpowers gravity and the star burps out large quantities of mass. I understand that these class O stars are so large, they will create a hypernova, which is much larger than a supernova and a black hole will be the remainder of such an explosion. Hmm... I find it curious that I just learned about this today and my go to place glp has it too [link to www.thewarningsecondcoming.com] Rise now and accept My Seal, the Seal of the Living God. Recite this Crusade Prayer (33) to acknowledge My Seal and accept it with love, joy and gratitude. O my God, my Loving Father, I accept with love and gratitude Your Divine Seal of Protection. Your Divinity encompasses my body and soul for eternity. I bow in humble thanksgiving and offer my deep love and loyalty to You my Beloved Father. I beg You to protect me and my loved ones with this special Seal and I pledge my life to Your service forever and ever. I love You Dear Father. I console You in these times Dear Father. I offer You the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son In atonement for the sins of the world and for the salvation of all Your children. Amen. Go, My children and do not fear. Trust in Me, Your beloved Father, who lovingly created each of you. I know every single soul, every part of you is known to Me. Not one of you is loved less than the other. Because of this I do not want to lose one soul. Not one. Please continue to pray My Divine Mercy Chaplet every day. One day, you will understand why this purification is needed. Your Loving Father In Heaven |
