Would you include "supernova" as an "extreme storm"?

But Sirius IS big enough, AND it's big enough, AND it will go off someday.
Then we may just be toast. "Vincent van der Laan" wrote in message ... On 28-10-2003 23:53, in article , "John R.

Instead it will become a red giant, but does not orbit close enough to its companion, Sirius B, a white dwarf to for gas to fall onto the little bugger and create a Type Ia supernova. Sirius A will eventually become a white dwarf like its companion that preceded it. This is what will happen to our sun too. |

Happy trails, Gary (net.yogi.bear) ------------------------------------------------ I'm not talking about novae, the sun is too small. I was just wondering if solar flares in theory could hurl so much matter into space, that the earth atmosphere would be blown away. I'll ask at some astronomy group, I'm OT here anyway!
