The binary star KIC 9832227 is about 1800 light years away.

Scientific literature cites 50 to 100 light years as the closest safe distance between Earth and a supernova.

So in 2017 scientists predicted a super nova in 5 years, and in 2022 another scientist suggested it would happen soon. so here we are nearing the Endo for 2024 (7 years), and still no action? Are these darn stars waiting for the November election results? Or is something wrong with these scientists? Did these stars kiss and make up or declare a truce?
