"We either caught something shortly after an event like two planets crashing together or alien intelligence,"


With that opener, I'm STILL undecided if I want to read this

There's a couple of puns in there ... and they have to do with democrats

A swarm of comets has been proposed to explain the erratic and non-repeating light variations seen in the star located nearly 1,500 light years from Earth in the constellation Cygnus the Swan. But no one really seems satisfied with the explanation, and the chances that we'd catch a huge event like a comet breakup or planetary collision in the short time the star has been under observation seems unlikely.



I'm willing to be corrected, but ..... if something is 1500 light years away ... and it's been under observation .... did Copernicus have a Hubble we never knew about ?
