omega0401 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Massive Star LinkThis star is twice as heavy as any previously discovered. It is 10 times brighter than our own sun. Knowing how bright our own sun is, it is so hard to imagine something being 10 times brighter. The video at the website was very informative. The universe is just soooo amazing.

Hemidakota Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Could we call it a celestial world if we can visually see it? Or a new glorified world that resides on a telestial glory state? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omega0401 Posted August 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 It's 10, 000, 000 times brighter than the sun. Not 10, according to the link.You're right. I left out the word million. That makes a big difference. Thanks for catching it. Hard to imagine something that is 10 million times brighter than the sun. Just amazing. Learning about that makes me wonder just how bright can something really get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
