• Dinosaurs roamed Earth for an astonishingly long time — over 170 million years, not just 120 as often simplified.

    From their emergence during the Late Triassic period about 230 million years ago, they evolved into a vast array of forms before their extinction 66 million years ago.

    Among them, Stegosaurus, with its distinctive plates and tail spikes, lived around 155–150 million years ago in the Late Jurassic.

    In contrast, Tyrannosaurus rex, one of the most iconic dinosaurs, lived much later during the Late Cretaceous, around 68–66 million years ago.

    This means Stegosaurus had already been extinct for approximately 80 million years before T. rex ever walked the Earth.

    To put that into perspective: the time separating Stegosaurus and T. rex is greater than the time between T. rex and humans.

    This reveals the immense timescale of dinosaur evolution — they were not all living at once, as commonly portrayed in popular media.

  • When You Look at Orion, You're Watching the Life Cycle of Stars Unfold in Real Time

    It begins with Betelgeuse — the fiery red giant blazing at Orion’s shoulder. Enormous and unstable, it's nearing the end of its life. Within the next 100,000 years, it will explode in a brilliant supernova, briefly outshining the Moon and turning night into day.

    Next, your eyes are drawn to Orion’s Belt — three iconic stars in perfect alignment: Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka. These massive suns are younger than Betelgeuse but destined for the same fate — to burn out and collapse into stellar remnants.

    And just below them lies the Orion Nebula (M42) — a breathtaking cradle of creation. Here, clouds of gas and dust are actively forming newborn stars, giving rise to the next generation of cosmic giants.

    In one glance, Orion tells a timeless story — of stars that are dying, stars in their prime, and stars just beginning to shine. It's not just a constellation; it's a living timeline, stretching millions of years across the sky.

    We’re not just stargazing — we’re witnessing the universe in motion.
