Eye candy. Oooo, pretty.

[null and void]

Darn you!

😜😎😂🤣😂..............................

[central_va]

...and I feel fine

[Red Badger]

I wonder, if a ‘Gravity Wave’ passes thru you, do you suddenly feel heavier then lighter or taller then shorter or wider then narrower?................................

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

How come we didn't hear it?

</sarcasm>

[Red Badger]

In space, no one can hear you scream.......................

[larrytown]

I heard it.

‘Course, it may be tinnitus, but I’m going with the cosmic explosion 8 billion light years away.

Quite the description but we get a rendition pic... They even said they caught it real time and not even a short truncated clip!!??

I think Space threads should be required to have an “Alleged” added to all titles!!

[Red Badger]

Well, most of these incidents happen at night..................🤦‍♀️

[sit-rep]

Lol

[Seruzawa]

So they detect an explosion. And then we get pages of pure conjecture. This is science today. Blogs seeking clicks.

Rule of thumb: as soon as dark matter or energy are mentioned delete source.

Thanks Red Badger, nice twofer (hence the combined ping lists/message).

Red Foxx used to tell a joke in his stand-up days:

The best place to be when a nuclear bomb goes off?

Somewhere you can look around and say, “What was that noise?”........................... 🤷‍♂️

Looks like a C-141 coming in for a landing.
