Amazing Discovery Mira, A Star Seeding Space

An amazing first has been photographed in space: a star with a tail. The star's name is Mira after the Latin word for wonderful.

Most amazing of all is that as much as our civilization claims to know, we keep stumbling on things that prove how little we really do know. A discovery this grand in scope is unfathomable, and for many might well be unsettling. We feel safe and secure with our theories that make sense to us, that are reasonable and simple. Yet our sophisticated tools are discovering things beyond the vision of our eyes and the scope of our understanding.

"I was shocked when I first saw this completely unexpected, humongous tail trailing behind a well-known star," said scientist Christopher Martin of the California Institute of Technology.

The star is shedding the building blocks of life, like carbon and oxygen, as it dies across a vast area of space. Scientists are baffled; it doesn't fit their physics. It wasn't that long ago that scientists trying to weigh the universe discovered that most of the mass was unaccounted for, missing, dark. The search for the explanation behind what is called "dark matter" remains fruitless, yet some feel they are on the edge of an explanation of the mystery.

You are crazy if you see a UFO or a ghost because that's unexplained...maybe you're not crazy?
