ok, so the sun is a star, and a lifecycle of a star dictates that the star will eventally supernova and become a giant, or a dwarf. My question, is when our sun supernova's the earth as we know it will be destroyed, engulfed in a fiery doom! why aren't we trying to get off this mudball and try developing a biodome on the moon or something as practice, so that way when we do have to leave this planet, we are prepared, and have some basic knowlege of what things can go wrong if we tried to create another biodome on another planet far enough away from the sun so when it supernova's we as a human race can survive.

Does anyone know anything about what steps are being done in this area? Yeah, i'll be dead before that hapens, but i just want to know.

I am located 30 miles northwest of toronto and I would say the star was almost directly over head but east of my position . I was laying on my back in the pool and looking directly at the area and then POP a large flash of a millisecond. Never seen anything like it before

Where did that matter come from? What or where was its origin?

Please don't respond just to tell me the Big Bang definitely, not possibly, happened.

I was wondering, when the probe landed on the moon Titan. How does it send back pictures? And why don't they put a high quality camera on the probe so that they get much clearer pictures?

I got an e-mail saying that through the month of August we can see Mars with the naked eye. It supposedly will rise in the east after 10pm and the the month goes on it will get brighter and look like the size of a full moon. They also said that it happened 5,000 years ago and will not happen again in our lifetime.
