I believe he is being satirical. At least, I hope he is.AbsoluteVirtue18 said:Is it bad that the first thing I thought when I read "Black Hole Shredding Star" was "Damn, that would make a badass screensaver?"
Also, I am not going to be the one to call out The Plunk on his obvious attempt to start an argument, someone else do it.
I think the black hole already ate that one, unfortunately. This was just desert.Moontouched-Moogle said:Wow, that's awesome. Give those astronomers a gold star.
But..but... gets elected because of the surprise Teddy Roosevelt attack into the election. His presidency was a by-product of crazy Taft and Roosevelt antics.CosmicCommander said:Did you... no... you can't be that dumb... to think... to even consider thinking that...
DEAR GOD, THIS GUY THINKS WOODROW WILSON WAS A GOOD PRESIDENT. ABANDON WEBSITE, EVERYBODY. COME ON, OUT, OUT OUT. INTELLECTUALS AND HISTORIANS FIRST, LET'S GET OUT.
That'd be a Neutron Star, well a few are capable of that, given there are several types of neutron stars which are essentially like black holes, except you see them, and they focus most of their "Instant Death to anything nearby" outward, instead of directly sucking stuff towards itself.Zachary Amaranth said:The opposite, but a freaking awesome concept.Khravv said:Surely I can't be the only one who read "black hole shredding star" as meaning a star with the quality of black hole shredding. But that would be the opposite I guess.
Exactly what I was thinking, fuck the computer simulation, I'd have loved to see the real thingLunar Templar said:>.< and no one recorded it?!
damn it ... that'd been cool to watch
Xan Krieger said:...black holes suck...
lol, I thought the same thing. I've come to the conclusion that he must have meant a good president for Princeton, not a good president for the United States.CosmicCommander said:Good article... wait...
Wait, did I read that right?A lot of good things come out of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore... President Woodrow Wilson...

That is SO COOL. I never actually knew that was a thing. Well, I know Neutron Stars, but I didn't know they actually were capable of this in some instances.A-D. said:That'd be a Neutron Star, well a few are capable of that, given there are several types of neutron stars which are essentially like black holes, except you see them, and they focus most of their "Instant Death to anything nearby" outward, instead of directly sucking stuff towards itself.
Look up Starquakes, thats like earthquakes, except given how dense and massive a Neutron Star, especially magnetars and pulsars are, yeah, its like a couple billion times worse. Oh and they in odd intervals release massive bursts of gamma radiation..which kills stuff within a few lightyears of the star on which it occured.
So yeah, there are..literally death stars, except they dont have a giant laser and a exhaust port to fire at to make it stop.
