Astronomers find evidence for massive star-killing sandstorms

Another day , another reason why the universe is terrorize . There ’s brand new evidence supporting a antecedently debunked theory that huge , immobile storms of dust can inflict a fatal blow on already dying lead .

These theorical particles of dust spring up in the stars themselves , and migrate to the surface , where they are blown off and cross space at one hundred times the tycoon of the solar malarky . This is not a minor sand storm . Half of the maven ’s mass is gone by the end of it . Or that was the possibility . Astronomers pooh - poohed it as only uranologist could , saying the lilliputian particles would get melt by the heat of the wiz and reintegrate .

However , in a newspaper in Nature , astronomers led by Barnaby Norris from the University of Sydney in Australia happen an interesting twist . The detritus subatomic particle are a little bigger than expected . Not only does this mean that they do n’t get disintegrated , it signify that they shine the starlight back into the star , staying cool , cooking the whizz farther , and then being sent out in deadly clouds across the universe that pass over out everything in their path . Forget asteroids — let ’s see Han Solo seek to circumvent a monolithic , star - kill detritus storm .
