nope.

the Sun has went crazy the last year

Remember when it blasted the Mars Rovers? That was the largest ever recorded.

Would be kinda scary if th escientists were wrong about it lasting another few million years, and it went out tomorow.

We only have had the technology to record such events for about 50 years. That is a nanosecond compared to a stellar lifetime.

Great, and me on an airplane tomorrow afternoon.

Should I cancel my flight? Will I get a few extra chest X-Rays worth? Or will i end up landing on a highway several thousand miles from where i'm supposed to be?

I'm in! I think I'll bring some Guinness as well. And maybe a set of cards just in case it takes a little longer than we expect.

Beer! Well done raggie! Focus on the essentials /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I've got a cache of fully charged 18650s and a Mag85 so that nobody needs to feel cold /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
