Hubble Watches Light From Mysterious Star Reverberate
http://www.spacedaily.com/news/spaceart-03a.html Baltimore - Mar 28, 2003 In January 2002, a dull star in an obscure constellation suddenly became 600,000 times more luminous than our Sun, temporarily making it the brightest star in our Milky Way galaxy.
Umm . . . how bright is the Pistol Star? How about Eta Carinae?
-- Ronn! :)
God bless America, Land that I love! Stand beside her, and guide her Thru the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans, white with foam… God bless America! My home, sweet home.
-- Irving Berlin (1888-1989)
