Half a Billion times further out than the Sun,
and our scientists here on earth can see it?
Wow. I suppose satelites will send images, as with the pictures from Mars. Even still, it’s quite impressive if they are certain of what is being seen.

At least the dust cloud is “more slower.”

“Star spinning so ‘extremely fast’ it risks causing ‘one of the most powerful explosions in the universe’”

Wait.

The universe is infinite.

We can only only observe an infinitesimally small part of it.

So, the title is crap.

I’m unclear how this is contributing to Anthropogenic Climate Change.

I thought that when one black hole ate another black hole was the most powerful event in the universe.

The system was found using the Very Large Telescope in Chile and Anglo-Australia Telescope in Australia.

But what's interesting is that researchers found that the dust cloud itself is more slower.

That is much badder grammar.

It's one of a pair of stars that could be involved in one of the universe's biggest explosions, experts suggest.

>>>

As the stars orbit each other, this dust takes on "elegant spiral pinwheel shapes".

"It remains a mystery how dust – similar to soot from a candle – forms in such harsh environments," said Professor Paul Crowther, of the University of Sheffield, who was involved in the study.

"But this newly discovered system is the most beautiful case seen to date."

I love these visuals (signs from heaven). What is old is new again.

Genesis 26:4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; [Isaac]

Genesis 28:14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. [Jacob]

Nighttime dust-ups:

Genesis 32

24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

It's one of a pair of stars that could be involved in one of the universe's biggest explosions, experts suggest.

Jacob + Esav, the ultimate family reunion of miraculous proportions.. the bigger the dream, the bigger the miracle:

Isaiah 11:6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

"But this newly discovered system is the most beautiful case seen to date."

"Wolf-Rayet stars":

כוכבי וולף-ראייה

Beautiful (It's an important link to the mother of all Israel.)

I'll be vindicated. After all, the Hebrew spelling for Rayet is this:

Visual perception is the ability to interpret the surrounding environment using light in the visible spectrum reflected by the objects in the environment. This is different from visual acuity which refers to how clearly a person sees (for example "20/20 vision"). A person can have problem with visual perceptual processing even if he/she has 20/20 vision.

The resulting perception is also known as visual perception, eyesight, sight, or vision (adjectival form: visual, optical, or ocular). The various physiological components involved in vision are referred to collectively as the visual system, and are the focus of much research in linguistics, psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and molecular biology, collectively referred to as vision science.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_perception

It pays to be observant!

Whirling stars make for a "new constellation". Secrets of the universe-level stuff. You saw it here first. :)

(Off to the big search engine in the sky this post goes.)

I don't see anything in the article that explains why these stars would produce more powerful explosions than a normal iron core-collapse supernova. Perhaps the centrifugal force is helping to support the star and is permitting it to mature further than normal and build up a more massive core than the normal limit, or perhaps allow fusible elements around the core to get involved and detonate.

I’m just trying to figure out if it cares about the “risk”.
Has anyone interviewed it yet? Can we send Bob Acosta?
