x100 sounds excessively high, let alone x1000, especially given that I don't think astronomers have confirmed any protostars. I'd be curious to know where Alexander is getting that number.



Some light research indicates that "protostar" refers to a specific phase of star formation, and that even if it is excessively bright, the period immediately proceeding it should be a good candidate.


I love the oops timelines.


The designation of oops-8 as such is controversial, because plunging it into nuclear winter in order to test the effects was very much intentional.
