- rho138 2y agohttps://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SKYCAL/SKYCAL.html https://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SKYCAL/SKYCAL.html This seems like the best resource that includes planets and meteor showers Some events aren’t really calculated for, e.g. some comets appear spur of the moment
- mangamadaiyan 2y agoWorse, dying stars seem to have a mind of their own when it comes to going Supernova.
- jimbobthrowawy 2y agoAt the very least there's enough neutrino detectors on earth that we should have some warning a while before we can see it happen. (neutrinos are less affected by gravity while travelling away from the exploding star so they'll reach us before the light does)
- Cyphase 2y agoThis is a thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperNova_Early_Warning_System https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperNova_Early_Warning_System > The SuperNova Early Warning System (SNEWS) is a network of neutrino detectors designed to give early warning to astronomers in the event of a supernova in the Milky Way, our home galaxy, or in a nearby galaxy such as the Large Magellanic Cloud or the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy.
- Cyphase 2y agoNot a supernova, but this nova is expected any day now, in the next few months: https://www.space.com/new-star-2024-T-Coronae-Borealis https://www.space.com/new-star-2024-T-Coronae-Borealis
- reaperducer 2y agoThe New York Times has a pretty good space-related events calendar feed. It's made in Google Calendar, but should work everywhere.
