V838 Mon, APOD 27/11/2005

Post by astroton » Sun Jan 22, 2006 10:23 am

Apologies for starting a new topic mak. But, I flipped through the topic lists and didn't see an entry related to this. You may lock it, if it's an oversight on my part.

But,

Does the rapid expansion of V838 Mon at cool temprature mean, the star has jumped a few rungs in evolution (The Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram) in few months? Does this prove we need to rethink stellar evolution?

Is light echo theory the final explaination?

Deists believe that God created universe & than left it alone. Much like this forum. Proffesional astronomers created it and than abndoned it! Don't hear much from them?

Stella evolution is always being re-thought and so within the last few years with the hubble images and better telescopes.

Since we have many different type of star explosions we will also see extremes of images.

Hello

One comment,,,,,,,,,stone age ideas hang on.

The Big Bang was formulated some 70 to 80 years ago with limited information. From than cosmoligists have molded ideas around the Big Bang. So much waste of time and space.
