As I was thinking back then. We were looking at a GRB directly into it's jet. But still the 7 minutes is very unusual.
Thanks for the video Anton.
One thing that I have noticed is that astrophysicists seem to always say that shouldn't happen, but very little about what could happen. Kind of myopic I'd think. It's like predefining your expectations before even having a look at what is actually happen considering the potentially gazillions of stars, perturbations and combinations possible ad extremus to produce anything and everything in one way or another.
We then get fantastical news headlines and YouTubes about things that "shouldn't happen", more like we didn't think of that.
I didn't know that star exploding was the light source in the sky, for 7 minutes in 2022; I thought it was Superman flying around with a flashlight!
Is it possible a passing rogue black hole or star could cause another star to speed up?
Heavy elements are a product of star's normal operation.
Shkadov LASER. Someone got roasted.
"Something was not adding up…….." Let's blame those compressed, narrow, ultra powerful jets! And the energy behind those jets?? Let's blame extraordinary speed the star enwrapped. But, dang nab it! This magnetic energy fed directly into the jets, and not the star, which insisted on being perfectly normal.
Narrow from the spin
I looked up the weather on different parts of the earth. Like everywhere there is a way way to high O3 level. Could it because of this?
New category: Gamma Ray Flood
I'm sure they've looked into this, but could gravitational lensing concentrate a jet to make it so narrow?
So we got sniped by a GRB from billions of years ago. The odds of that happening are insanely small. Perhaps we should be a bit more concerned about threats from space and try to spread out as quickly as possible instead of killing each other.
The most powerful explosion was Anton’s smile 😁
ASMR super comp of Anton calling you a wonderful person
We should be using observatories in Microwave/IR, all bands to capture THE SURROUNDINGS…
The whole area, the planets, moons, they're all going to be undergoing something rare to see…
Hi Anton!
I thought for sure this was caused by a supermassive black hole swallowing a binary pair of neutron stars, but I am pleasantly wrong!
Field test of Death Star😀
An explosion from 2 billion light years away had an impact on our atmosphere. That's INSANE
Something something something… Taco Bell
You have a great job and do it so well
I got an idea. Big big star. Black hole sails straight through it, eats the core, and then shoots out the other side. That would produce a pretty big boom.
If BOAT had an effect on Earth's ionosphere I wonder what effect it might have had on the Sun?
Maybe all stars can produce most elements. Mystery solved, DUH!
Its always Goku’s next opponent to defeat
Love the goofy thumbnail lol
2B light year away and it affected our atmosphere? I hope all the space between hasnt just been sterilised good luck finding aliens
Crazy to think it was two billion years ago.
Finally something interesting.
😊😊That smile!😊😁
What Kind of Damage would this 💥🌟 Cause in it's Local solar system/ 🌌 ??
The real sign of the red katchina
