| There is a reason i have the Alias Cosmic....i enjoy Cosmology, the Universe etc. This puts how small and insignificant we really are on the cosmic scale of things into perspective!      Antares is a Red Super Giant and the 15th brightest star in the sky. It is what our sun will look like in 5 billion years! _________________  My Steam Page |

| That's quite fascinating. We are just another germ in the universe. Perhaps a disease.

Yes Charlie, in fact we are more like a parasite, using up the natural resources of our environment, consuming it for our own gain......sad but true._________________ My Steam Page |

| the thing that amazes me is the fact our sun will expand to be that large, albeit less dense, and consume pretty well almost everything in the solar system. By then though we'll be on the run from cylons looking for 'new' earth _________________  |

| yeah i have to agreee, super star destroyers would kick the shit out of any federation starship. if a normal destroyer can issues a delta base zero in an hour a super star destroyer could probably take out a star. although it would come down to whether ion cannons and lasers could take on phaser beams and photon torpedoes _________________ |
