Our Sun is a star, a rather mediocre one at that.
All other stars are alive in the fact that they are active nuclear furnaces.
They're divided into a number of different types and vary widely in size and output.
Thank you for the very kind compliment.
Yes, the Earth is alive, but it's moving very slowly here today. 21 below this morning and forecasts to -30 or so through Monday.
21 below, going down to -30? That arctic blast is working its wonders, isn't it. Stay warm, John, stay safe on the roads (if you must use them).
Incredible solar images once again in your 2nd TA photo post- clicking on the mosaics is breathtaking, equally so enlarging the filaments & prominences.
I wonder if stars are alive?

They are born, they manifest, they die.

The earth is alive also. I love your pictures, John, very professional.

Wow, that brings back fond memories of my days living and working at the business end of Highway 6563... thanks for that. :-)
