What if (on White Dwarfs)
Daffy Duck You are right. I'm Bert all the way down. It was a toy
spinning gyro that in the eyes of an 8 year old kid was defying gravity,that gave me an interest in science. It even gave you an interest to flame all of my science thoughts. If you don't find my ideas interesting than you are making a big fool out of yourself. Keep in mind "Only fools rush in" Bert |

Daffy duck I predict the flow of beer will be around for more that a
half billion years,and like waves coming to shore it will have a white foam. There is no need for nature to recycle me(reborn) if this is not reality bert PS CHEERS |

What if (on White Dwarfs)

Small problem there - the Sun's increased luminosity over the next half billion years is likely to evaporate our atmosphere. With no atmosphere to keep the water on the surface, no water. Therefore, by the time the Sun does become a red giant and char the Earth, it will be charring a lifeless world. A more recent fault will be from the ongoing demise of our magnetoshpere, as being the cause of Earth losing much of its atmosphere that's protecting us from the gauntlet of solar and cosmic energy that's not very DNA/RNA friendly, that is unless we move underground or under sufficient water. - Brad Guth |

G=EMC^2 Glazier wrote: Hagar(not to horrible) Yes they have been looking for changes in brightness in hopes of proving a Sun like star has planets. My difference is I'm using a star the size of the Earth,and going for a total eclipse. That would be a first,and also prove a white dwarf having great gravitation can have a solar system. Bert A planet in an orbital plane in the line of sight to us to eclipse Sirius B would also produce measurable Doppler effect. No such effect has been observed in the spectra of Sirius B. That just about rules out a Jupiter mass planet orbiting that object. That's also true, unless the item is somewhat smaller and being the density of a spent white dwarf core. The ability to monitor the likes of Sirius isn't good enough for us to tell what's there to behold, as something of a sizable item is perhaps Sirius C, that's just too close or somewhat skewed into an orbit that's just weird enough as to keeping itself out of sight. - Brad Guth |

What if we keep a camera continually on Sirius B,and we see its bright point of light blink? We would know it had in its solar system a planet the size of Jupiter. We would be observing a total eclipse of a star many LY away. I predict this would happen. It would cost little time and money. It could get me a Nobel if proven. Bert That's very true, but easier said than accomplished unless using a 20 DB CCD along with a near-UV and/or UV-a band-pass element, of which such items do exist, and for best results of getting that camera and of its mirror optics and band-pass filters outside of our polluted atmosphere, so that all of those pesky Sirius-A photons don't keep us so blinded by the light (sort of speak). We should be able to identify a Venus/Earth class of planet, if any exist. BTW; how fast are we moving towards Sirius? - Brad Guth |

When the transition from Star to White Dwarf is complete (through the Red Giant stage), the original mass of the star will be greatly reduced, since the Red Giant phase blasts most of its outer layers into space, in repeated convulsions. It is thus doubtful that the resulting White Dwarf has enough gravity to keep the outer planets in a stable orbit. Neptune, Uranus and Pluto (and their moons) will probably drift off into the Oort cloud and beyond and may well wind up as true wandering planets in the Kuiper belt.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I tend to agree, and just where the hell otherwise do you folks think our extremely unusual moon and that of Venus came from, and remotely even that of good old proto-Earth? However, of such other discards by so many other red giant fiascos having tossed out their outter and/or more robust Venus like planets along with whatever spare moons, of which obviously those items had to go somewhere, and that somewhere could just as easily become that of a tough old white dwarf. How about a few pesky planets orbiting the likes of Sirius A? - Brad Guth |
