  • Hehe.. Jeg kan godt høre at du kommer fra Danmark. :)

  • So this storm only happened 150 years ago. Very cool!

  • Japanese perhaps?

  • The number 150 is mentioned twice hear. The sun is 150 million kms from us and I believe that translates to about 6 light MINUTES. The parent star of this particular planet is in the constellation Pegasus, 150 light YEARS from us.

  • 150 million kms wasnt it? or something like that..very far i imagine, space is amazing so beatiful yet quite deadly and frightening. thanku for sharing.

  • which strange accent does he speak?

  • 150 Light Years is relatively close, but still, an unfathomable distance (for me, at least) to comprehend.
