- Channel, on 07/10/2008, -1/+38This new galaxy reminds me of American Idol.
It's sad when even the universe is having to compete for viewers these days. - Tallon29, on 07/11/2008, -0/+20That would be MakiMaki's stupidity, not Science Daily's.
- Prathik89, on 07/11/2008, -0/+16If it was like American Idol, the stars would just go supernova and die a few years later.
- evil-doer, on 07/11/2008, -1/+17OP got the topic wrong. article says in distant universe (meaning ours), topic says in A distant universe (meaning a different one somehow?).
completely different - fzammetti, on 07/11/2008, -0/+12In other news, confirmation of multiverse theory was discovered in a Digg headline today, and millions of geeks suddenly cried out in terror together over it (wait a few minutes and see how many comments point out the error... millions might be an understatement!)
- inactive, on 07/11/2008, -0/+12Kids today and their modern galaxies full of stars... Why, back in my day, we got one star a year, for Christmas, and we were damn grateful.
- oo7evan, on 07/11/2008, -0/+11THE Distant Universe, not A Distant Universe.
- jtbradley, on 07/11/2008, -2/+11It says in "the very remote universe", not "a very remote universe". Sort of like saying you went to the remote parts of the earth.
- Andrwmorph, on 07/11/2008, -0/+9There is an 'a' in the Digg title but not the actual article title.
- mstachiw, on 07/11/2008, -0/+8Honeyhive Galaxy Unlocked! FTW!
- alex7575, on 07/11/2008, -1/+7That may be true for the article, but not true for the title of the submission
- staticneuron, on 07/11/2008, -0/+6Mr. Malak of the NASA's Spitzer Science Center has decided to name this new discovery the 'Star Forge'. Dr. Revan, head of the Science Center agrees to the naming. There are various disruptions throughout the scientific comunities about the name.
- Majhem, on 07/11/2008, -0/+5Maybe even big enough to form a 'stable' galactic center for Super-Galaxy.
- Sanduu, on 07/11/2008, -0/+4Well, that's a real factory. Wonder what's the price of a star produced by them.
- poidh, on 07/11/2008, -1/+5Plus they'd have to suck Simon Fuller's ***** on the casting couch before they were created :/
- B3000, on 07/10/2008, -0/+4Yeah, I was going to make a joke about Hollywood being a star making machine, but you kind a beat me to it. Darn you.
- markperia, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3First thing I thought about was god in futurama. That looks similar.
- metroidragon, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3Title of article:
"Rare 'Star-Making Machine' Discovered In *a* Distant Universe"
The Digg articles title fails, but the science magazines title is fine. - Spelvin, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3I read that as a stable GERIATRIC center for a super galaxy. Then I thought about how this may just be a baby boomer generation for that remote part of the galaxy and the need for nursing homes for all those stars. Then that morphed into how horrible it will be when they all try to collect social security and go supernova....
- TRScheel, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3If you do things right people wont be sure if you've done anything at all
- Taiyoryu, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3down with light pollution
- lordbutler, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3Sounds like Slartibartfast just started making designer stars! Sweet!
- Verfel, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3It's a smegging garbage pod...
- Rudegar, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3there is a guy there who got an award for the coastline of norway :)
- analogkid01, on 07/11/2008, -0/+3Daddy?
- elister, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2For those that remember reading the Carl Sagan book 'Contact' (and its been a while since I read it), when Eleanor Arroway visited the aliens at the other side of the wormhole, one of the things they told her was that they were basically creating stellar nurseries. They were feeding matter into our universe.
ALL HAIL THE QUAGAARS!! - Andytom, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2Every star sperm is sacred.
Every star sperm is great.
If a star sperm is wasted,
God gets quite irate.
Hmm doesn't quite work. - PoorNTx, on 07/11/2008, -1/+3I thought "star factory" was a couch in a Hollywood casting directors office... go figure it...
- InfiniteNothing, on 07/11/2008, -4/+6I for one welcome our new star making overlords
- zantos420, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2http://i32.tinypic.com/vobyb7.jpg
- plaunie, on 07/11/2008, -7/+9Article title: "Rare 'Star-Making Machine' Discovered In a Distant Universe"
I see and 'A'...
- ToTiredToCare, on 07/11/2008, -2/+4Maybe they found God's house...
- trollick, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2Misleading title - it is not a machine, it's a galaxy.
- EarlOfLade, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2So.. It must be in the negatives now then, it was close to zero before...
- ASSASSYN360, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2I tried to google star machine patents and it does not exists. Buried for no patent.
- mweflen, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2I think discovering "A distant universe" is more impressive than discovering a star factory. How about "the distant universe."
- Majink, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2Good Sir, you have won this thread with an untold degree of awesomeness. Enjoy it, you have earned it.
On a side note, KOTOR 3. Where for art thou? - brstilson, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2They don't mean A distant universe, they mean THE distant universe, i.e. really far away.
- diggdallas, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1nope, that's his poop shoot
- diggdallas, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1I've got a few for sale...$50 bucks in my paypal and the star is yours.
- diggdallas, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1I, for one, welcome our distant universe overlords.
- kaosethema, on 07/12/2008, -1/+2people want english as the official language but half of you cannot even read it properly.
it says "in the very remote universe" not "in a very remote universe"
as in remote U.S., meaning remote "within" the U.S... meaning remote "within" the universe.
oy - diggdallas, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1That was a book?
- kaosethema, on 07/12/2008, -0/+1omg, learn english
- nitroskanker, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1In other news: We don't know 99.9% about the distant universe!
- diggdallas, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1i bet u feel dumb lol
- Apocrypha, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1Sorry, I have to bury this because of the stupid title.
- Terr01, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1No, we've just found the first universe that likes "bling".
- skidzilla, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1Digg isn't slashdot. You do get intelligent people chiming in every now and then though...
- boejangles, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1Maybe the Galaxy has cancer, and that's why its growing at such an alarming rate...
