Nothing wrong with that...I have (at last count) over 50 of the books.
50 books? Yikes.
Billions of years ago. Redshift >/~1.54.
Yeah, I'm a geek. I saw Episode IV on opening night, 1977...
I was only 4 yrs old back then. LOL!
Bob was making a beer run, Lori as usual was talking to her mom on her cell and Larry was surfing porn sites.........Nobody was looking thru the telescope.
It was cloudy.
So true!
a stellar explosion seen last January has shocked astronomers because when they looked for the star's parent galaxy, they saw nothing at all. The explosion took place in the middle of nowhere, far away from any detectable galaxy. The astronomers saw no hint of a galaxy even though they looked for one with the world's largest telescope... The explosion belongs to a class of events know as gamma-ray bursts, or GRBs for short. GRBs are triggered when a very heavy star can no longer produce energy.

:’) My pleasure.
My first thought, “There’s a disturbance in the galaxy...as though a hundred thousand voices cried out.”
(Or something like that...)
