Just watched this and I had to share it. I like the comment someone makes about scale...
"If the sun is 12cm diametre like a CD, earth is only 1.1mm diametre. Guess the diameter of vv cephei.....
228meters.
Impressive no ? "
If the sun was a pin head beetlejuice (red giant near orion) would be the size of a basketball...

I once heard if the earth was scaled to the size of a basketball, then the atmosphere is the thickness of a piece of plastic shrink wrapped on the outside. Scary when you consider what we pump into it!.. No wind here either
Just went and looked under the sink for a wormhole so I could get this weekends jackpot lotto numbers... all I found was ants... so Im off to the hardware store...
