a Bright light in the sky

[frozen]

If you had a supernova anywhere within 1million kilometers of Delta, everyone would die. Not even that close. Remember that there are dozens of millions of kilometers between earth and our normal sun.. Mercury is about half as far away, but its sun side is practically on fire.. Thats a small yellow sun.. A supernova is about 200 times larger, as you read.. If our sun was a supernova, it'd have consumed the Earth by now.. You'd have to make it about 30 million kilometers away from Delta, which means it'd have to be about a million kilometers large at the smallest.. This way it wouldn't kill all life and burn the planets and stations in the system..

1. this is not real life, its freelancer. some things CAN be exxagerated to a point dab.
2. Our sun right now is a long way from becoming a supernova, and even if it was to become a supernova, of-course we would be dead. never disagreed there.
3. plus, i re-read that article. says that you would need to be 30 light years away from the supernova to have any potential destructive damage on the earth, and 100 light years away to experience slight damage.
4. the black hole in 85 should rip corsica and anything else that is in the system apart, if everything was based on real life facts. black holes are formed DUE to super-novas, and thus are MUCH more destructive. how would you even survive in a system with a black hole, by being so close? this pretty much backs my statement that some things are exxagerated. its a game if you base EVERYTHING on real life, hell, you wont be able to do half the stuff we can.
5. all im asking is for the sun to be removed, and have a supernova to be added. Delta is a custom built system, and its quite nice, but hell, we all know a bit of distinction doesnt hurt.

(still finding the blooming article *grumble*. if i dont find it, ill type up the relevant passage of the article)
