Thank you so much for your very kind words Laura. Did you see that a couple of days ago Jupiter was really close to the full moon in the sky?

I love the stars and moon and learning about how much deeper everything is than it actually appears is so amazing. Thank you for sharing all this enlightening information, Thomas 😊

Yes you are right Robbie, and it is great when you can have conversations about it.

It makes sense to research and share what interests you. There are always other people who share the interest, and it makes for good conversations.

Thank you so much David for your kind support. I certainly remember you telling me about your advisor. It was nothing wrong with my advisor in Robotics but I have to admit I am a bit jeolous that you had such a prominent scientist as an advisor. His discovery/theory is extremely interesting and fascinating. I don’t seriously thing we will see a Betelgeuse supernova in our lifetime but if it happened it would be wonderful. I can only imagine the science you and your collegues would be able to figure out from it.

It’s a fun topic and one near and dear to me. As I believe I mentioned, my graduate advisor, Dr. Stirling Colgate, was the astronomer who predicted that a supernova explosion would be preceded by a neutrino burst. He was proven right by Supernova 1987A. Later, some of my observations of supernovae in distant galaxies were part of the study that led to the discovery of dark energy. They’re fascinating objects. From a scientific side, it would be amazing if Betelgeuse exploded in our lifetime. It would give us an unprecedented close-up view of a supernova blast. I’m sure we’d learn a lot!
