The wind of a supernova flowing over you would be the end of you and everything around you.
- ISL 4y agoThe wind you feel today probably has a meaningful supernova component.
- shagie 4y agoEven the neutrinos from a supernova would be enough. https://what-if.xkcd.com/73/ https://what-if.xkcd.com/73/ > How close would you have to be to a supernova to get a lethal dose of neutrino radiation? > The phrase "lethal dose of neutrino radiation" is a weird one. I had to turn it over in my head a few times after I heard it.
- raydiatian 4y ago> Only one neutrino will hit you every few years Ah, the excuse I’ve been looking for. “Can’t come into work today, was hit by a neutrino this morning. Need to rest up.”
- somat 4y agoAn even better one is proton decay. Proton decay is theoretically possible but has never been observed. and perhaps somewhere in the vast universe one might have done so... maybe. So I like to blame it on many of life's unexpected events. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_decay https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_decay
- d0mine 4y ago"there are about a trillion neutrinos from the Sun passing through it every second."
- PhasmaFelis 4y agoThat's exactly the point, isn't it?
- simonh 4y agoIt depends on your physical form and how close you got. With forms like ours yes that’s the point he’s making. In context it makes sense he’s pissed off.
