    A 2021 study lead by Ekaterina Ilin (Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam, Germany)
    presented evidence that M dwarf flares tend to emanate from their polar regions,
    possibly sparing close in planets from direct hits. Their initial data was taken from
    a small sampling of M dwarf stars from TESS observations, and further studies showed
    that this may well be the norm. (from Universe Today 8/7/21)

      @empireoflizards 3 місяці тому

      I find the thought of an M dwarf supporting life on an Earth-like planet quite intriguing since they are so long lived...but, hear that they can be quite turbulent. But also, M (red) dwarf is a wide definition if I understand correctly. Perhaps there are some in a mass range closer to our sun but dimmer but just as stable. And, it might outlive our sun by many-fold? Would life-sustaining planets, barring any major collisions, continue indefinitely as long as the star remains stable?

    I think a lot of these 'extinction events' are way too hyped.
    For instance, the threat from supervolcanos is given far too much credence as an extinction driver.
    Yes, of course, it will be bad for us humans, but the very fact there have been dozens of these events this past few million years, yet the diversity of life on the planet today is quite astounding, tells me they aren't as bad as is made out.
    Still, I'd rather NOT be around when one goes off, or a nearby supernova or asteroid strike for that matter, but I do think that this planet and the life on it is WAY more resilient than scientists would have us believe.🤔

    Making broad sweeping statements about dangers posed by cataclysmic events, based solely on computer simulations, and someone then making policy decisions based on such statements. What could possibly go wrong? 'Trust me, there's nothing to worry about.' Famous last words.

    I mean how do they know what cause anything that long ago? If light travels fastest wouldn't we see the light before the destruction? Just asking. And if carbon dating is wrong then there is no telling how you'd or old something truly is

    • @stargazer5784
      @stargazer5784 3 місяці тому

      Radio carbon dating is quite accurate out to about 50,000 years. Beyond that, the decay rates of other radioactive isotopes are used, which are also very well established. The abundances of these isotopes also tells us alot about ancient past events. Before you start jumping up and down waving your hands, remember this. The people who discovered these properties started their work over a hundred years ago, when folks out in the country were still bleeding people with leaches. They eventually, for better or worse, ended up building nuclear reactors, atomic bombs, and numerous other devices that utilized the reactions of particles that no one had ever even at the time, but the scientists knew they existed. Just sayin.
