Attention! Take care of your pets!!!

Translantion: Deadly rays cause more and more victims!

I shoot this answer:

I know and like to watch out for the Perseids and Leonids.

Leonids can be seen massively. So I go with Leonids.

I am a longperiod comet and I got a third tail, which couldnt be seen by the naked eye, but was found out by powerful instruments. Oh, Hale-Bopp! Margarita Yes!!! :thumb_up: Here is my third tail: Sodium tail Comet Hale–Bopp's neutral sodium tail (the straight tail extending up to the left from the...

that is correct!

It's getting more likely all the time it seems with the help of new Kepler data and the like. I'd like to know for sure though how huge complex beautiful crop-circles are made flawlessly in a few hours un noticed year after year night after night, without a single credible video on youtube. I can't...

Yes, I like it too, although it's not my favorite star - there are others that are bluer, you know! :wink: Can't resist posting another riddle... http://a.abcnews.com/images/Health/ht_quadruplets_dr_110411_wg.jpg We are fraternal quadruplets!

That's a good question, Moonlady. Maybe I'll figure it out some day.

Beyond

I suggest to use a selfmade tinfoil hat, like a giant sombrero hat, so you can hide under it when flares come close enough to get you!

The upper right part shows definitley some big buildings on a platform, the R-ORUs look like living and working places while the EFUs look like keeping fuel and other resources for this place. The VE in the right corner looks like the bridge of this space station. They have another one at the left s...
