I was just wondering if anyone else is following this story? I plan to watch it live...I wonder what they will announce??? There is so much speculation already so I won't add any.

Tell us Ali, lol. IT blocked youtube, facebook, myspace and all the other social networking sites here at work. There is nothing in the regular newswebs about Chandra.

Well it wasn't extrodinary but it was interesting...

The Big Announcement: Chandra, VLA Find Youngest Supernova in Our Galaxy

Here is the link to the story. link

With all the hype I was leaning towards a possible discovery of a red dwarf spotted nearby...Ah well.

The super nova was spotted visibly by us 30 years ago... The thing is, it seems to be turning into a black hole now. Which is supposedly the first time we see a star of that size do that.
