Thanks ETL. If we need help with this, we need to chant "Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!" /jk
Yes, that's as good as the jokes are going to get. Unless someone makes a Uranus joke out of this, somehow. The links below are from the Iron-60 keyword, and I'll guess you had no idea we even HAD one. Ha! ;^)

Someone needs to get the Galactic Authorities on this.

We can’t have neighbors throwing their trash in our yard.

As a matter of fact, there *is* an Eltanin Impact keyword, funny you should ask. And it looks like I missed a couple oldies for the Iron-60 keyword, noticed this by checking the adrianmelott keyword..

Thanks for the link to the doc on Betelgeuse. Definitely sounds interesting. Will watch on smartphone tomorrow when I again have free access to WiFi. Don't have internet where I'm currently living now. Been using a public PC for the past year.

Lol! Just now realized the “doc” was only 2 minutes! :)

In that case I can watch it now, before they throw me out of the free computer access facility I’m in now.

Iron-60 is a Beta emitter with half-life 2.6E6 years!

Just a few million years off on the timing.

“behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.”

They do make one assumption: “Because iron-60 is radioactive, if it was formed with the Earth it would be long gone by now.”

I’m unsure what the 1/2 life is off the top of my head, but if the theory they are using for the age of the planet is off then there could still be iron-60 left.

According to the Surgeon General, there is no safe level of iron-60.

That’s a mososaur, not a megalodon.

Megalodons died out because the channel between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans between North and South America closed, and that’s where their nursery was.

That’s the truth, I saw it on Discovery channel!!
