Eta Carinae could explode any moment, in a matter of minutes, the sky of the southern hemisphere would change for millions of years, a night light spectacle almost as bright as the moon

It could happen tomorrow, in a week, in a month, in a year, in 100 years...

Your saying that it is closer to earth than the sun. New fag detected

Nigga it already went off like before life on Earth started up. We're just not going to see it for about two times of previously stated duration due to lights travel time at that distance. And by the time it hits and looks all beautiful and shit, it will have either reformed or dissipated in real time over there.

Only transe/x/uals and dumb niggers lack a thorough understanding of how fast light travels

>> No.8261034

the beautiful thing is that the explosion would only last a few minutes

so in a few minutes the southern hemisphere would go from nothing to being full of colors and stuff, and it would last like that for eons

Nigga look who's talking.

It's 7500 light year away..If it happened longer ago than that we'd have seen it already (or it would blown the fuck out.)

Don't look now, but it hasn't exploded yet.

Chances we would witness this hypernova explosion is extremely remote
