Question is for fun. Sorry to have to say this, but fantasy is about fun, excitement and feeling good; its not a forum for your personal pain and suffering.

Be creative and have fun with your answer.

1) I am always 9 million km of fire.
2) When I am old I expand & get Red, I get red for 4 million years only unlike my smaller cousins.
3) After 4 million years I blow up & my light can be seen even after millions of years.
4) But after that I shrink to a small size of 10 km.
5) I suck the life out of the other stars.
6) Astronomers in the Latins have named me " AstroToro" meaning the "StarEater." Not even light can escape me.





Going out should I wear sliver or black gloves?

Is it possible for a planet to have no magnetic field such as Earth's, or will one always be present? Similarly, are several magnetic poles possible, eg three 'Norths'?

Assuming we had a mountain that high! The real question is - do we need these phenomenal sized rockets? A hot air balloon would get you 20 miles up - nearly half way. My mountain would be just a 70 mile walk!

i mean we always have this extra trash so why can't we leave on a planet since there is so much of space or we can just send a rocket with no people,just trash to the sun.i mean it will just burn up and its not like we use any other rocket again so this wouldn't be a waste of money either.

Recently, I have noticed more and more asteroids flying by. Do you think we could be entering an asteroid belt? I have also noticed many rocks around here that may have not been glacial rocks but rather an asteroid dump. Do you think that asteroids have to have burn marks on them in order to be asteroids? The Van Allen Belt may cause debris (such as asteroids) to burn only when certain angle of earth's entry is achieved. Could this information be kept from the public and a concern now that we all know about 2012 and what happened to the dinosaurs 13,000 years ago during the asteroid belt's last attack! Any information would be helpful, thank-you!

This is all hypathetical and will be interesting to find an answer,

If You was able to sit on the beam of light from a spot light when it first starts out and ride that beam as it travels into outerspace and then someone shuts the light off would you keep going on the begining of the light that is traveling or would you just stop traveling?? The point is would the light that is already traveling keep going after the light was shut off?
