This how the sun will explode,first it will expand,and contract,killing everyone in earth

No this is not how the sun will explode, the sun is way too small. Hang around for 4 or 5 billion years and you will see!

Got to agree, it does look like the universe is staring back at you. Not being paranoid of course.

It really is amazing and fascinating what we can observe and learn from these days.

Our advances and discoveries in astronomy just keeps things more amazing all the time.

It’s of no use for anyone, of course except those nerds themselves for generating their monthly pay checks and burning tons of tax money for their continuing of similar useless space ‘research’.

I cant wait until we reach those "Super earths" that NASA has already discovered.

“ Amazing. It looks like an eye. “

That’s some Sauron s** right there; ( “ You cannot hide. I see you. “ ) *

Fascinating (!) :)

Sven Asai, it’s basic research like this that helps people understand the natural world. It brings about innovation and enables you to futilely whine on and name call people you don’t even know.

A few days ago I was watching this Astrology program. What made me laugh is that all these very clever scientists actually think the human race will survive another 460 million years to see the Sun expand by 10% and humankind finding an Exoplanet to migrate to. In 460 million years Earth will be a scorched place with the only inhabitants being Cockroaches and Scorpions...

At the rate we're going, we'll have destroyed the planet by next century. Either that, or humans will have become extinct.

"2.4 billion light years from Earth" its just mind boggling distance.

I cant wait until we reach those "Super earths" that NASA has already discovered.

We may travel to some of them in the future and several thousand if not millions of years from now as the sun expands and/or we destroy our planet, mankind will have to evacuate and resettle on one of them. One of those 'Super Earths' may be our great-grand (X) childrens' new planetary home.

I think us proletariats will be long gone but the elites have worked out ways to survive.
