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

"Eta Carinae could blow anytime"!

http://www.space.com/scienceastronom...ae_000307.html

It is 100 times more massive that the Sun, and only 7,500 LYrs from
Earth!

It may have already blown long ago, and its fatal gamma wave traveling
toward us for most of human history!


Fatal no. Eta Carinae would cause some issues for satellites and LEO objects,
but its doubtful whether anything more. Its already had some supernova-type
events (supernova impostor events).
