Wow ...big kitty.

Think of the pounds per sq inch gravity

I read once that a teaspoon of matter in a black hole weighs like a supertanker

I imagine a star this big would be heavy dude for like way out

I mean our modest star pulls out to the Oort cloud which is I think over a quarter distance to Proxima Centaur I

Great post

I love this stuff...thanks Nick Sand..lol

IIRC this is the last gasp of a star’s lifespan before it runs out of fuel and collapses in on itself and becomes a white dwarf, if it’s big enough possibly even a black hole.
