A genuine end of the world prediction!

[emsley]

There are some "Giant" planets turning into white dawrfs outside of our galaxy when they pop it gonna go with a billion billion worth of force of TNT and our little cluster of planets is only 3000 light years away from it.

Reckon it will strip the atmosphere.

I read it at thesun.co.uk a national paper but cant get it back up - anyone got anything on this?

[Cominus]

By the time the blast gets here we'll be light years away.

[emsley]

They say we will see it in the sky - end of the world rocks - no one is safe!

I want teh earth to blow up but no before we get rid of that pesky moon.

[veristic]

Planets can't turn into white dwarfs... stars do.

[emsley]

Yeah that one ^

 

The math is certain apparently.

They just cant predict when.

[veristic]

Depends on size and mass of the star too. Can change into white or brown dwarfs, or a black hole.

WE ARE GOING TO DIE!

Actually, I thought the Andromeda galaxy is supposed to collide with ours in a few billion years. Not sure if it's going to be the end of the world, but it should be one hell of a fireworks show.

[veristic]

I think it'll be more than a few billion years. We'll be long gone by then and most of what we know on earth. Considering the center of the milky way galaxy is a super-massive black hole, I think it'll annihilate Andromeda after what's in our own galaxy.

[VT-Vincent]

If I'm not mistaken, isn't our Sun supposed to burn out before then and take most of our solar system with it?

[emsley]

^ Yeah but thats billions on billions.

They dont even know when - a solar flair is more probable. But dont think its been documented.

 

I think it was Venus that had a "storm" and it was about 50 times bigger than earth in one swirling mass on its surface.

Fucking awesome.
