For those in the Northern Hemisphere...

The brightest supernova in the last 25 years.



For those of us in the southern latitudes, Ursa Major's not visible. Darnit.

  2. Never mind. Wait till Betelgeuse blows up. Good chance of it happening before the century is over.

  3. I love the neuroendocrine reference in this segment "Oh my god Rick Perry is going to be our next President!" (second installment):

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.

Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.

Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.

As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
