still hoping for 2021 Arthur and all. here is another star thing.

the new variant "omicron" sounded like a character in a science fiction story. its a greek letter, but omicron is also a star whose tail is only visible in uv light. the tail is 13 light years long. sometimes extremely dim, other times many times brighter than our sun. please forgive the rabbit trail Arthur. its just another weird convergence in 2021 of stuff we couldn't make up.

omicron ceti, or mira

No apologies needed, Regina. Fascinating stuff.

I would have studied astronomy in University but figured I didn't have the aptitude for it. I was worried I would have been just taking up space. 😉

My grandson and I discussed this over Thanksgiving. The super nova or death of two stars to create a new star was intriguing. It is forecast for very late spring to mid summer, should not have any impact on earth.
Seeing Jupiter so clearly in the eastern, northern hemisphere has been exciting as the plants are so aligned.
What wonders will we see from our Father’s home? Going to be amazing fir sure. :yahoo:
