Computer models predict high carbon levels when two white dwarfs merge. “Maybe this is a kind of fluffy mess where the white dwarfs have merged,” Kirshner said. To observe supernovae, astronomers analyze spectra from a computerized telescope, rather than observing the explosions directly. Harvard graduate student Malcolm...
...ingredients for “megadeath” are there, he said. But Ferguson said that “the importance of human agency” in starting wars should not be dismissed. In the question and answer session that followed, when multiple students asked him to predict the level of violence in the next few decades, Ferguson said that “there’s no such thing as the future—there are only futures.” Although Ferguson said that a major war within the next decade is likely, he said...
