Brightest star explosion seen blinds satellite
"The brightest explosion of a star ever seen
temporarily blinded a satellite set up to watch such events, astronomers said on Wednesday." See: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100715/...us_space_burst |

Betelgeuse seems likely; it's 300-600 ly from us. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betelgeuse#Fate --Damon |

No Guth, there is no proof that the asteroid that was ~ six miles across that struck the earth 65 million years ago, that killed of the dinosaurs, was from Sirius, B or otherwise. |

No Guth, there is no proof that the asteroid that was ~ six miles across that struck the earth 65 million years ago, that killed of the dinosaurs, was from Sirius, B or otherwise. And there's still no objective proof that it wasn't from Sirius B or via some other Sirius star that lost its tidal radii grip of planets w/ moons plus whatever asteroids. Exactly where was our solar system in relation to Sirius as of 65 MYBP and before, and how long would the interstellar trek of rogue items released from its red supergiant phase be? While you're at it, tell us how and when we got our Arctic ocean basin and that nifty seasonal tilt. Tell us how and when our moon/Selene got that 2500 km diameter crater, that just so happens to match up with our Arctic ocean basin. I mean, shouldn't there otherwise be an Arctic land mass similar to Antarctica? You do realize the oldest trees in North America are only a few thousand years old, and by no means much of anything else is older than 11,712 years, as though something pretty downright significant had previously taken place. “The record holders for an individual non-clonal tree are Great Basin Bristlecone Pine trees from California and Nevada in the United States, dated 4,000 to 5,000 years old by counting tree rings.” Other trees sufficiently distant from the Artic date to near 50,000 years, and that’s quite an unusual 10:1 disparity for a planet that’s not supposed to have changed it’s seasonal tilt or much less its orbit. Most clonal colonies are worth something less than 13,000 YBP. Do you have any really old cave-life era art or impressions of our moon, or anything pertaining to seasons that had to have been pretty darn significant with all of that melting glacial ice and subsequent erosion taking place? How the hell did those cave dwellers manage to sleep through all of that? Were such early humans a nearly blind as well as a totally dumbfounded species? Are you suggesting those unintelligent early humans somehow knew exactly how to best survive the last ice-age better than anything else, and therefore cared less than **** about any stinking moon, having to bother with seasonal changes or the unusual lack of whatever local vegetation? In other words, are you and other Semites actually that freaking nuts? Are you suggesting that our human evolution that involved any real intelligence didn’t take off until sometime well after that last ice- age? When exactly did this perpetually dumbfounded human species become self-aware, and thus previously having been unaware of their environment that apparently didn’t include a moon or any significant seasons? ~ BG |

No Guth, there is no proof that the asteroid that was ~ six miles across that struck the earth 65 million years ago, that killed of the dinosaurs, was from Sirius, B or otherwise.

Most clonal colonies (root/tuber surviving things) are worth something less than 13,000 YBP. Much further away from the Arctic ocean are a couple of locations suggesting 100,000 years, which is still zilch worth of natural evolution time for such a planet that was supposed to always have that terrific seasonal tilt and its terrific moon that always went unnoticed by all humanoids.
