My starting point was to work out the ice to silicate ratio from the satellites over density incomparion to that of water and sili...

Re: Planets bigger than their stars
That artist's impression is very similar to the sort of quality you can get using Celestia nowadays. With a bit of post processing and the use of large enough textures I think it would be fairly easy to make an image like that. Umm, i really dont know, celestia has a narrow options for graphics but...

Re: Betelgeuse is Shrinking
Your unfounded fear is probably from watching too many Sci-Fi shows. :wink: Probably, but i would think that the concequences of a blakhole encountering the solar system would be disastrous from a biased human & survaivalist point of view. The reality is that the Nova and the resulting stellar ...

Re: Betelgeuse is Shrinking
Well not really "good", hopefully we would observe a nove with a neutron star remainder (it would be astonishing it it turns out that the nova had occured a while ago and the light/image of the event would arrive in the next few years). Why not "good"? What could be bad about th...

I wonder if this means Betelgeuse might be in it's death throes... I hope so. :D Not that I so much want the star gone, but it would be fascinating to observe! ... and it would certainly be interesting/useful to have a black hole to study at such close range. :) Well not really "good", ho...

Well after checking out the stars i noticed something rather odd,star A is at 18 sol radius and B at 1.2 sol radius althogh all reference i can find state that A is 12.2 sol radius and B is 9.2 sol radius (though temperatures seem ok), even in celestia on looks exagerated ove the other. is this by d...
