To continue the discussion from there about blue dwarfs.
So the ‘blue-dwarf stars’ are highly hypothetical and may actually not happen, ok.
About blue main sequence stars : are all stars beginning their life as main sequence stars? When we hear about massive blue giants, are those stars ex-main sequence blue stars? Or is there a mass at which point the star switch to another class?
our sun is yellow dwarf. all stars in main sequence are dwarfs
The Formula E racing series’ opening race had a wreck at the end. Formula E is Formula One’s all-electric sister, so to speak. All the cars are electric versions of the gas-powered formula vehicles, and hopefully some of that tech will trickle down to consumer cars soon.
Not what I meant.
What is the connection between blue giants and blue main sequence stars? Are blue giant more massive stars, or are they what blue main sequence become when they evolve?
And then, why is there a jump between main sequence and blue giants?

“Hubble Helps Find Smallest Known Galaxy Containing a Supermassive Black Hole” If you lived inside this dwarf galaxy, the night sky would dazzle with at least 1 million stars visible to the naked eye. Our nighttime sky as seen from Earth’s surface shows 4,000 stars. http://www.nasa.gov/press/2014/september/hubble-helps-find-smallest-known-galaxy-containing-a-supermassive-black-hole/#.VB7_HfldUqv
Not only is all life on Earth descending from one single organism, but so are all eukaryotes (cells with nucleus and other organelles). In the entire history of Earth, fertile prokaryote merge may have happened exactly once.
Also, there are not only stellar and galactic but also universal habitable zones.
Also, we are actually in the Laniakea supercluster and (at the edge of) the Virgo cluster, and not simply in the “Virgo supercluster” as was previously told.

Sci-fi film Interstellar leads to new scientific discovery
Nolan enlisted astrophysicist Kip Thorne to work with his special effects team in order to create the most realistic looking black hole on cinema. Thorne started by sending pages and pages of equations that Nolan’s animators fed into their rendering software.
What the computers finally churned out after hours of rendering – all 800 terabytes of it – was astounding.
Turns out that a black hole doesn’t look too much like its name. It actually looks like this:

China is now selling police laser guns to shoot down pesky drones.
A fouler way to quit smoking.
I’m not sure how practicable this is, but who knows?
