I love that thing, theres a side-by-side comparison somewhere as well so you can gauge it a little better. I actually cannot fathom the size of the largest star in comparison to us. I can't get my mind around it.

Think you'll find Pulto isn't a planet any more :) Keep up!

And as for it causing the last ice age... pfft. Milankovitch Cyles? Sun Spot activity? Albedo effect of the earth? Deep ocean current changes? Gravitational anomolies like rouge rougue planets are way down the list of global temperature change phenomina.

Just another scare mongering tatic to keep funding professors who want to go to confreneces abroad and stay in a hotel room with their young, pretty secretaries. Or is that just me being cynical?
