  1. Getting obvious mainstream has no real grasp of why the variations ….. Most likely it is going to turn out to be the effect of Birkeland Currents that power the stars effectively giving them a fusion aurrora such is the power delivered/atracted.

  2. Why do you keep removing my comments?

    I'm still waiting for a response.

    Sometimes, I make spelling mistakes or the stupid spellcheck "corrects" one or more of my words that I didn't want changed, which often changes the meaning of my post, if I don't catch the errors, or a combination of the above.

    Firstly: I have posted NOTHING OFFENSIVE and many people like my comments.

    Secondly: You didn't tell me which one it is, so how am I supposed to know what to correct if I don't know which one it is?

    Thirdly, there is something wrong with your platform.

    To wit: It started about a month ago. I post something and half a minute later or sometimes instantly, it disappears, so I have to repost it. Finally, after reposting it one or more times, it stays but sometimes it just disappears and stays disappeared or later, it comes back and stays.

    This happens often and it's really annoying. The post should just stay posted without disappearing.

    I need you to tell me WHICH POST YOU DIDN'T LIKE because I have posted NOTHING OFFENSIVE. Your AI just isn't understanding me properly.

    You can respond in notifications or even better, by email.

  3. maybe this sounds uneducated, but in a situation like this, and how it takes time for us to see things, does the sudden appearance of a random planet just one day pop up into the visible view? ionno, i kind of have a picture in my mind and i dont think im asking the question correctly.
    So travelling light, runs consecutive to, to but behind what we see as it happened, or what we would have previously seen?
    I've slaughtered this question and im sorry.

  4. Shouldn't such dimming have occurred before if it was due to a companion star. Observations of the star has been happening for centuries and the ability to detect subtle changes in light levels existed long before 2019 so shouldn't dimming have been observed earlier in the 2000's, during the 1990's or the 80's…

  5. Now that is going to make the supernova that Betelgeuse gives off quite interesting to watch. The smaller star might be able to somewhat survive the nova, and begin to drag the remnant behind itself as it 'shoots' out of their shared system once the gravity of Betelgeuse completely falls off. A galactic comet!

  6. Not necessarily a surprise. Several old sources (from the Roman times) describe the star as yellow-orange rather than red.

    If that's more than a subjective impression, it would mean that Betelgeuse's red giant phase has only just begun.

  7. When it runs out of fuel it will not go into a black hole when all the magma rejects all of its gas it will be one dead star. You o only get black holes when to stars are dying and collide the dust is proton charged so it drags dark matter to fuell it…
