I know next to nothing about astronomy but I always find it fascinating.

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.

      I think it is probably my lack of motivation to work out the past 8 months. I could tell it was starting to act up a bit. Like, one day I was getting some micro-spasms. Bowling just tipped it over the edge.  Its not the worst it has been. Moving around helps out. I just need to do some PT.

      Day 52: 2/3/2025 I actually forgot to post yesterday even though I did some good stuff. That's my second miss since the streak started, but I think by the rules I'm okay.  Today I got to the range and worked my way through the bag. The range was crowded so I wasn't able to grab any video, maybe tomorrow. I'd like to send some to Yoda as I have another lesson with him the end of next week.  I spent a little bit of extra time with my new PXG Mini-driver.... I like it.
