***Look Familiar?? LIGHT ECHOS IN THE UNICORN CONSTELLATION V838 Mon Crest*** ***In ancient Babylon, the cradle of civilization, people worshiped the unicorn as far back as 3500 BC. The Constellation Monoceros (One Horn) the Unicorn: “He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the Lord his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them. [22] God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.” ~Numbers 23: 21-22~ ***Monoceros is a faint constellation on the celestial equator. Its name is Greek for unicorn. Its definition is attributed to the 17th-century Dutch cartographer Petrus Plancius. It is bordered by Orion to the west, Gemini to the north, Canis Major to the south and Hydra to the east. Other bordering constellations include Canis Minor, Lepus and Puppis. Beta Monocerotis is a triple star system in the shape of a triangle. “But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.” ~ Psalm 92:10~ ***For reasons unknown, star V838 Mons outer surface suddenly greatly expanded with the result that it became the brightest star in the entire Milky Way Galaxy in January 2002. Then, just as suddenly, it faded. A stellar flash like this had never been seen before supernovas and novas expel matter out into space. The light continues to “echo” years after a stellar outburst. ((In a light echo, light from the flash is reflected by successively more distant rings in the complex array of ambient interstellar dust that already surrounded the star)). “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. [2] Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.” ~Psalm 19: 1-2~ “But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens ((cannot contain thee)); how much less this house which I have built!” ~2 Chron 6:18~ ***What makes this starburst even more fascinating is that its origins remains a puzzle, as scientists still don’t fully understand why the explosion and echoing of ((un-containable light)) occurred. Initially, astronomers thought it was a nova but more recently, they came to the realization that it was something quite different. “Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brazen(Bronze) altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat.” ~2 Chron 7:7~
