Astronomy is such a fascinating topic to really sit and ponder about.

    Back in 1986, when I was in High School, I woke in the middle of the night, sat up and looked out of my condo window on the 9th floor. Can't say how long I was staring out towards the horizon, all I saw was a few dozen stars in the sky. The next thing I saw, not to high off the horizon, was a star that got really big, bright and started to shimmer... you could see how intense the energy was! At first I thought it was a helicopter searchlight because it just hovered and the light just shimmered big a bright for a good 10 seconds or so, then shrank back down to it's original size? I didn't see any helicopter flying away, so I was trying to process what I just saw... till this day I don't know what it was that I'd witness but it was pretty spectacular!

    The most dangerous Nova was the 1971 Nova that was actually a cop car in the mid 1980's that would pull up next to you at a stop light to see if you would light up the tires and drag race it. The flashing red and blue lights were well hidden as they looked like speakers in the rear window. This was in a Detroit suburb.

      We got something similar on the motorways/main A road (our Freeways) here in Essex, England but the cops were driving BMW 5 series! I used to travel down the A120 road doing 130+mph DAILY back in the later 90s (the speed limit was 70! Over 100mph was a licence loss, well over potential prison!) The cops would shoot up behind your car trying to goad you into racing! I was SO close to racing them numerous times, luckily they NEVER caught me!

      @divoulos5758 4 days ago that's rough..I remember the days after my moms death were very dark. I have struggled very much since her death but the 1st month or so was extremely hard. She was my comfort and my security. I felt very alone and unable to cope without her. I still dream that she is alive and we're joking and having fun and wake up feeling so much pain knowing she is gone. It gets somewhat less painful as time goes by but little things will trigger my grief and sends me back into that darkness. I hope you can find solice and begin the process of dealing with your loss better than I have. I was a mommas boy thru n thru, maybe your situation is different. Dealing with my greedy family trying to take my share of her estate has left me angry at my remaining family so I truly feel like once she died the love for my remaining family died with her. Find peace within yourself cuz deep down that's the only way to overcome it. Ive learned nobody truly feels the pain of your loss. It's up to you to find it within you to overcome your grief. My sincere condolences..good luck.

      So between the "Now" we experience and the "Now" in the space-time around the bi-stars there is 3000 years of light, meaning we see the Stars as they were 3000 years ago, here. 3000 div 80 is more than 30 times, which means 30 Nova blasts are in space-time on their way to us.
      Sure we don't know exactly when the Nova happens however like the random quantum world it does average to a pattern, which we can be confident in if we have seen enough of the pattern, in this case I feel we can assume each generation of our population may see a cosmic fire fart coming from the Pair.

    This is why you’ve become one of my favourite channels! I read about this recently only briefly but I couldn’t find a date for observation and now I know why. Btw my guess would be August 11th.

    April 27th - my grandson’s 5th birthday, it’s amazing to think both he & I may only see this once, we’re in the UK, fingers crossed for clear skies!

      @user-qr3nz1wi2j, It would be great if you got a picture of him, you and the nova on his birthday! That would be stellar in every sense 😀

    It’s great that you make these videos because it gives access to knowledge of current science discoveries to people that don’t know where to find the study articles let alone understand what it says. Thank you.

    Anton, thank you for introducing us lay people to the awesome topics of astronomy. We love ❤ your enthusiasm and knowledge.

    I'm going to predict that it doesn't happen. For whatever reason the star decides it's had enough of this Nova stuff, and never erupts again.

    Hello Anton, thanks for your cool vids! I pick July 16th, my 51st year orbiting our sun which will one day become a white dwarf. Astronomy is fascinating and your content is top notch. Thank You!

    I’ll go April 16th. (As the Uranium commodity usually has a very good week in the second trading week of April). Seems like a good window. What’s most exciting is that the $Billion space based spectrographs weren’t around 80 years ago so it will be fascinating to see all the gases and metals involved.
