I'd love to see some Hubble or Chandra pictures of these two.

I don't like the fact that there are 2 neutron stars spiraling towards each other that are only 2,000 light years away.

When two neutron stars coalesce (in about 1 thousandth of a second), it produces one of mother nature's most powerful explosions.

I imagine it won't happen for hundreds of millions of years? but that could be a bad day (2,000 years later) for Earth.

About 142.8 million years if their rate of closure remains constant....maybe by then, we'll know who killed Vince Foster.

...unless, of course, it happened 1,999 years ago.
