Do we have anything far enough out (light-weeks away?) and in that could give us the heads up as to when this actually occurred (and thus when the light will reach Earth for us to see it)?

No - even if we did we wouldn't be able to get the message any faster than the light is traveling here anyway. I haven't watched the video yet and I can't right now, but I'm very curious how they know this is going to happen. There must be some pre-nova event that they've spotted that enables them to predict it going off. I always thought it was like earthquakes though. Very hard to predict. They're there and then they're not.

    • Day 135 - 2025-02-12 Worked this morning before our Board Meeting in the afternoon/evening.
    • Next weekend myself and two pals are hopping on the plane to Queenstown with the following itinerary: Fri: Jack's Point Sat AM: Arrowtown Sat PM: Roxburgh Sun: Wanaka Other than the front nine at Wanaka, all will be new to me. Very excited to see them all and fingers crossed for good weather. A great selection of courses in the area - Millbrook, Hills, Queenstown, Alexandra and Cromwell will have to wait until next time! Someone might point me in the direction of the best place to post/view photos as I haven't yet encountered a dedicated forum for that (no doubt user error!).  
    • Welcome to TST.   We're glad you've joined.  
    • Day 5: 2/12/25 Weight shift drills followed by putting through 50 mm gates. The more upright I putt the better I have been doing. 
    • Hello all My name's Conor.  I'm from Scotland and have lived and golfed there and in Ireland for many years, but am currently based in Auckland. Have played golf for many years with periods of more or less activity/improvement. Keen to get stuck in to TST and thought I would say hi before I lean on your collective wisdom when I post the first video of my swing! Cheers   Conor
