These great stars beg the question could we survive if one exploded
about 15,000 LY from us? These stars are 100 rimes bigger than the
Sun.They radiate in the blue range because they are so very hot, This
makes them easy to find,as they stand out in the sky. They are not all
that numerous,but when they explode it is one of natures biggest
explosions,and one light up the day sky for two weeks(recorded in China)
Looking at Sher 25 and its in the constellation of Carina. I predict it
has already exploded,so look up,and dig a hole down Bert


Sirius A+B+C = 3 solar mass MC2 BANG at 8.6 LY

Those of us surviving the gamma and secondary/recoil worth of hard-
Xray influx of just 8.6 years from this stellar merger/implosion of a
supernova event (essentially the very same timing as we manage to have
optically detected such), whereas the arriving flak at 0.1 'c' gives
us 86 years to party down.

Of couse, oops! we're currently getting ourselves closer to Sirius.
