emsley Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cominus Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 By the time the blast gets here we'll be light years away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veristic Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Planets can't turn into white dwarfs... stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emsley Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 Yeah that one ^ The math is certain apparently. They just cant predict when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veristic Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Depends on size and mass of the star too. Can change into white or brown dwarfs, or a black hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VT-Vincent Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veristic Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 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 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 If I'm not mistaken, isn't our Sun supposed to burn out before then and take most of our solar system with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emsley Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 ^ 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.
