Just trying to imagine if people a few hundred years ago had been here to witness, in the span of a few weeks, an eclipse, an earthquake, a supernova as bright as the North Star, and an unexpected appearance of the northern lights.

People would have gone nuts! Believing in gods and the end of the world. Paranoia and suspicion would have been rife. War and famine everywhere. Diseases would have run rampant. So thankful we're past all that 🙃

Everybody keeps telling me it’s just a nova, not a supernova, but I think any nova that tries so hard is super, try showing some love, people
