This video is an extraordinary display of mother nature in action, or God if you’re that way inclined. Whatever your beliefs, seeing a the life and death of a star in glorious Technicolor is awesome.

Just the visuals themselves are amazing, seeing the matter form into a whole, before expanding massively and becoming stars such as the one we see in our sky every night, assuming there’s no cloud.

Watching this also makes me again question whether there is life out there, beyond the confines of our planet. With that many stars out there, the chances are very high, at least in my opinion.

I’m not saying little green men exist but surely thinking that we are the pinnacle of civilization in the universe is slightly arrogant don’t you think?
