- dankoleary, on 10/12/2007, -15/+44This video is a lie since the earth is only 6,000 years old. This clearly is a video made by Satan to test our faith.
/sarcasm - Jonny5alive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19Have you ever tried filming a star exploding?
It's pretty tricky. - noodlez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16about 5 billion years left.
/yes i looked it up - mikemac, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14I hope "Lost" gets to finish it's storyline before the sun goes.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+152012 - The end of the Mayan calendar.
- trenchMonkey, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Thank god the guy has his cell phone camera running to catch this.
- skotski, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Well whenever it does go, based on the speed of light and all, it will take us about 8 minutes to find out about it.
What I'm saying is that it may have already fizzled out 7.5 min ago... - killerofkiller, on 10/12/2007, -12/+17When i started reading your comment, my mouse went towards the red thumbs down button. Then i saw the / sarcasm. the sad part is that i actually know people who have given tat exact response to videos like this.
- hotpepper, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I knew immediately it was sarcasm, but then we Canadians are known for our sarcastic sense of humour.
- BobTGoon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Good thing they got Kal-El off in time.
- drlha, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5It is true noodlez. All the images from hubble that can resolve a ring around around the Supernova have been taken a significant amount of time after the actual explosion, where the ring has expanded to a size large enough for it to be resolved. If Hubble was pointing at even a nearby supernova as it exploded it would not be able to capture a video like this. Well not to mention the fact that it would be so bright it would probably damage the CCD, or at best saturate it so any imaging detail would be lost.
So yes, a video of the beginnings of a supernova is an unreasonable thing with the telescope technology we have right now. - resplence, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I don't know if you guys are under the impression that the fate of our sun is to explode in that same fashion, so just in case I'd like to point out that it will *not* burst into a supernova; it's too small. It will slowly collapse into a white dwarf instead.
- pickypg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Hubble is a satellite... in space.
- killerofkiller, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2...crazy canooks and your ice sports
- nitsuj, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Nice CG, although the music sounds like it was poached from some old B&W movie...when the villain appears wearing a cloak, top-hat and curly mustache.
- alexrussell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The sun is about 4-5 billion years old and has about 4-5 billion years left when, as someone already said, it will swell up and engulf the Earth before shrinking down to a white dwarf over a couple more billion years. And if it doesn't engulf the Earth, the oceans will definitely boil and basically it won't be a nice place to be any more.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3"If and when this happens in our galaxy, I wonder if that music will be playing."
Nah, it'll be Slayer. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lol, jeff goldblum
- resplence, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Ah yes I skipped that whole enlarging and engulfing part. .
- noodlez, on 10/12/2007, -7/+8i clicked hoping it was actual footage, not a CGI presentation.
:( - gardnmi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Anyone know how much longer our sun is supposed to last?
- HHP2K, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Damn.. that was one asploded planet. Everyone thinks that the end of the earth is going to be something totally dramatic, and then you look at the 2.3 seconds it took for that entire planet to whisk away into particles.. wow.
- drlha, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3noodlez: I guess you don't realise that we don't have telescopes big enough to capture stuff like this happening in real time with any sort of imaging resolution other than "it looks like a dot".
- TimmyTerbler, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Anyone else read that as Death Star at first?
*goes to get more coffee - djcgmcse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3I call it a "Death Star"
- pickypg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2As far as I know, a supernova lasts a long time. Not to mention that we usually find supernovas after they start happening.
I was most disappointed by the fact that it actually did NOT talk about the birth of any new planetary systems, rather it only talked about the explosion destroying systems. - techmonkey4u, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2This is a better, longer video that contains the same footage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xp6G2YCtugY
- Parmon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Slowly collapse after expanding and engulfing Earth. Whatever is around on earth will not get to see the end of the sun
- gaoshan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0digga is closer to accurate than leoxnx... don't digg him down.
- kirstan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Trust me, you won't be around anymore to actually witness something like that.
You'll be vaporised thousands years earlier due to the increasing heat of the star. - newtronflux, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Except that's not planetary formation; that's the neutron star/pulsar remnant left after a core collapse of a Type II supernova. Planets are formed the same time as stars in the order of stellar evolution. This is the end of that cycle, not the beginning.
- noodlez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1http://hubblesite.org/
lots of other similar videos, some artistic recreations, some actual videos. - dextermanas, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Phew! Looks like I'm not the only one. For a second there, I was like "Empire Strikes Back... Again"
- noodlez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@drlha
and thats what i would want and would expect to see. better than an artist's rendition, imho.
for a doctor, you're being pretty obtuse. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+10This is obviously a lie since the universe was created the day I was born (Hint: I wasn't born 6000 years ago)
- gaoshan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Noodlez (as in.... nude lez? SWEET!)
For a naked lesbian you sure are being persistently dugg down. - Leathersoup, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Planet birth in dead star's rubble? From the headline I thought there was an article detailing an actual occurrence. This seems to be a "what can happen in outer-space video". Sort of like the "what can happen in cartoon land video" I saw where this guy had an anvil dropped on his head.
- digga, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Actually it's more like 4-5 *billion* years.
- BigEazy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1so thats where all my tax money is going .
- musntSurfatWork, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0God must have set up the sun with a Sony Laptop Battery.
- HCJfilms, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Sounds like Jeff Goldblum...
- venuspcs, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Stupid question, but why don't we hope into one of the recovered Alien Aircraft the US or UK governments are hiding from us, fly over there and video tape the ***** thing in REAL TIME.
/sarcasm??? Maybe!!!! Maybe not!!!! - chakka, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Duh... They can't use the recovered alien spacecraft because the atomic fuel cells have become depleted in them. The necessary plutonium 398 is only made in Persia and the UN has issued a ban on its enrichment by Iran. So it's obviously a cover up from both ends.
... and if the Earth will lose the sun in 4 or 5 billion years I don't see why I need to even go to work anymore, what's the use? - drlha, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3Until at least 11:30pm tonight.
- glenathon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0That's totally NOT Jeff Goldblum.
- BuckCynnie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0You are going to hell! god doesn't like dumb jokes like that.
- BuckCynnie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0No! NOOOOO!
It's not supposed to be that way!
Oh geez, NO! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1VOIDH!!!
- noodlez, on 10/12/2007, -8/+5@drlha
no, because i don't think a ***** lecture video that i can see on the discovery channel at 3am is worth digging.
whats next? dog whisperer clips going to start making the front page?
@ johnny5alive
yeah i know, thats why i clicked it. i was hoping for something new and exciting. you know, something newsworthy. -
