The Man of Steel
Superman's home planet of Krypton found at last! Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson was called in to answer one of the universe's most profound mysteries.

It would be so freakin' cool to be included in the world's most famous comic book!

Oh pish posh! Next thing you'll be telling me is there is a caped vigilantly, dressed as a bat, roaming your streets at night.
That is pretty cool though, but now some poor comic book nerd is gonna spend every waking moment trying to make contact with Krypton now.

I just placed an aluminum foil cap on my head and covered my windows with aluminum foil.

We cannot tell whether it presently exists. All we can evaluate is the light coming from it. If it is, in fact, as the article states, 27.1 or more light years away, then it could have blown up or have been destroyed by the Joker 27 years ago and we would still see its light. Many of the celestial objects whose light we presently see may no longer exist. Originally Posted by thebigspendur

Don't be ridiculous! It's a natural stone so it will be very difficult to determine its grit with any certainty. However, once I have secured a source I will be offering Cangooner Enterprise's first hone: the CHIG. Cangooner Hone of Indeterminate Grit. Originally Posted by ace

This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
