While camping, I noticed that if you look long enough at almost any star, you start seeing some tiny, subtle colors in that star. Even crazier, they sometimes flicker between more colors. In my case orange, blue and something like cyan.
Besides constellations, what else could you observe regarding starts, with the naked eye?
In reality, it’s probably already happened! And the light just hasn’t reached us yet
Pretty insane to think about that
550 Lj, but its only expected in 1,5mio Years
