    Scientists work out what will happen when the sun dies

    Professor Albert Zijslra says, ‘When a star dies it ejects a mass of gas and dust – known as its envelope – into space.

    ‘The envelope can be as much as half the star’s mass. This reveals the star’s core, which by this point in the star’s life is running out of fuel, eventually turning off and before finally dying.

    ‘It is only then the hot core makes the ejected envelope shine brightly for around 10,000 years – a brief period in astronomy. This is what makes the planetary nebula visible.

    ‘Some are so bright that they can be seen from extremely large distances measuring tens of millions of light years, where the star itself would have been much too faint to see.’

    Don’t let your yanny rest on it’s laurel

    THE WORLD IS DEBATING! THE WORLD IS ARGUING! WHAT ARE YOU HEARING!?

    [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXRLOJvyULo]

    This is the new dress of the year!! Laurel vs Yanny. For the record, the hears at Front Page Aliens heard Laurel. Friends who listen hear yanny. Someone who initially heard laurel suddenly changed his pitch and now hears yanny.

    This debate is surely set to get really ugly.

  • The Deacon returns to Coast to Coast AM

    The Deacon returns to Coast to Coast AM

    It was great to hear the Deacon once against on Coast to Coast AM last night.. Ian Punnett, the weekly fixture in many Coast fans’ lives for years, was afflicted with tinnitus and was forced to leave..
    Now it seems he will be occasionally back again.

    Last night he brought back his style and bad puns with an array of strangeness about desert cryptids and oddities.

    Exactly what late night paranormal/strange radio should be all about.

    Looking forward to hearing more from Ian Punnett.

  • High anxiety in the ring of fire

    High anxiety in the ring of fire …

    The West Coast is home to an 800-mile (1,300-kilometer) chain of 13 volcanoes , from Washington state’s Mount Baker to California’s Lassen Peak. They include Mount St. Helens, whose spectacular 1980 eruption in the Pacific Northwest killed dozens of people and sent volcanic ash across the country, and massive Mount Rainier, which towers above the Seattle metro area.

    And suddbely people along the west coast are worried that some of volcanoes may get active, thanks for the effect from the Hawaiian eruptions..

    According to the Associated Press:

    Mount Rainier eruptions in the distant past have caused destruction as far west as Puget Sound, some 50 miles (80 kilometers) away.

    The volcano hasn’t produced a significant eruption in the past 500 years. But it remains dangerous because of its great height, frequent earthquakes, active hydrothermal system, and 26 glaciers, experts said.

    An eruption on Mount Rainier could rapidly melt glaciers, triggering huge mudflows — called lahars — that could reach the densely populated surrounding lowlands, Westby said.
