EXPLODING STAR

WOW… I just am flabbergasted at all that GOD is bringing to light right now!!  I hope you will find the connections very interesting and revealing.  So many of my resent posts are connected.  

Today we are looking at an even that has been announced by NASA.

You will soon have a chance to see an exploding star: ‘Once-in-a-lifetime thing,’ NASA says

A star system, located 3,000 light-years away from Earth, is predicted to become visible to the unaided eye soon. This could be a once-in-a-lifetime viewing opportunity as the nova outburst only occurs about every 80 years. NASA  (How convenient, that means that most people who have experienced one in the past are dead.  Dead men tell no tales, and can give no testimony.)

The Great North American Eclipse has passed but skywatchers will soon have the opportunity to see something NASA experts are describing as a “once-in-a-lifetime” event.

A star system located 3,000 light-years away from Earth is predicted to soon become visible to the naked eye due to a nova outburst, an occurrence that only takes place about every 80 years. The “blaze star,” (Blaze as in fire) officially known as T Coronae Borealis, or T CrB, last exploded in 1946 and astronomers believe it will do it again sometime between February and September 2024.

Israel’s War of Independence (1947-1949)

In December 1946 – at the first post-war Zionist Congress in Basle – David Ben Gurion assumed the defense portfolio, including responsibility for the Haganah, which at the time concentrated on the struggle against the British.

Can ANYONE find a date for the event in 1946?  If there was an exploding star that year, I would be interested in knowing the day that it occurred.

Bill Cooke, lead for NASA’s Meteoroid Environment Office at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, said the timing of the explosion is much harder to predict than the eclipse but said when it happens it will be “something you’ll remember.”

Seeing that star blow up is much rarer than a solar eclipse,” Cooke told NPR. “So, it’s kind of a once-in-a-lifetime thing.”

The star system is typically far too dim to see with the unaided eye but will jump to the brightness of Polaris, the North Star, during the event. When that occurs, it will be visible for several days and even longer if you use binoculars.

The outburst will take place near the constellation Corona Borealis, or the Northern Crown, a small, semicircular arc bear Bootes and Hercules, NASA said. This is where the outburst will appear as “new” bright star.

According to NASA, the recurring nova is one of only five in our galaxy.

NOVA Latin origin. It is derived from “novus,” meaning “new.” Nova is also an astronomic term given to bright stars that appear suddenly in the sky and release powerful energy.

nova (n.)

“star that suddenly increases in brightness then slowly fades,” 1877, from Latin nova, fem. singular adjective of novus “new” (see new), used with stella “star” (a feminine noun in Latin) to describe a new star not previously known (Tycho Brahe’s published observation of the nova in Cassiopeia in 1572 was titled De nova stella). Not distinguished from supernovae until 1930s (Tycho’s star was a supernova). The classical plural is novae.
also from 1877
