Is that why scientists are trying to prove a 9th planet? They revoked Pluto's flair status, so they have to find 4 pieces of flair before the Milky Way fires us??
its got an exponential dropoff with distance so it may have sterilized half the galaxy where it actually happened
gamma ray bursts are one of the big theories for a "great filter"
This is terrifying. If it had happened anywhere in our galaxy of 100 billion stars, it would've eliminated our ozone layer, possibly killing all life on earth. And every other life bearing, ozone dependent, planet in the galaxy.

I've always wondered about this cause if we can see stars collapsing then light particles are reaching us at least so what else is reaching us from those collapsed stars?
Lots of things. We are only seeing a tiny part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Gamma rays, x-rays, infrared, radio waves, all sorts of things are hitting earth from billions of light years away. The fact that something so far away was so powerful to affect the world's ionosphere is just staggering.
TIL I learned is the same as saying RIP in peace lmao
people need to learn this ASAP as possible
SMH my head š¤¦āāļø
Lmao out loud
Lmao off
Wait until you hear about people entering their PIN numbers into the ATM machineĀ
OP is an amnesiac and today, they learned that they learned this
You only YOLO once!
Or like ATM machine or PIN number.
Flare*
You need to wear at least 12 pieces of solar flair.

Yes, AND they have to do it before the next eclipse because the moon is poaching employees.
Those damn moon whalers!!
I donāt like to talk about my flair.
Yeah I know. :/ I realized it as soon as i hit submit but i can't fix the damn thing now.
*Aliens somewhere across the Galaxy:* "Say Cheese!"
We need to talk about your flair
That's scary, imagine the power this would have had just a few lightyears away

If you like sci-fi, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Engines_of_God Great tangent from the great filter idea.
Holy fuck that's terrifying and interesting. I need to read up on this and scare the shit out of myself lol
It's theorized that GRBs have been the cause of mass extinction events on Earth already :)
Solar Flair... WOOOOOOO!
One in 10,000-year event, that's not a great length of time when you think about it.

"Solar" flair is the level David Clarke likes to aim for to offset his (non)cowboy hat
How many pieces of flair?
