TV tonight...

Hey, tonight's "Perfect Disaster" on Discovery Channel is the Super Typhoon...make sure to check your listings! Last Sunday was the SuperTornado in Dallas and the SunStorm in New York, and the way they're doing these is pretty cool. It's part fiction, in how they show the potential crisis, but the science behind the stories really is nifty. (I can't believe I just used the word 'nifty'...) Maybe I should say 'thought provoking'. lol
If I stay up to watch it (I have to be up for work at 3am), I'll let ya'll know if it's any good.

There was this one movie that showed a couple years back or so, it was about what would happen if the sun went supernova on us and the start of it and how it would be....it is not the one with Tia Carreira(sp) in it but a differant one that I think that aired on the Discovery channel possibly.
It was really good and was hoping that someone else seen it too.

Is it similiar in production to the Supervolcano movie they did last year (the one with Tom Brokaw as 'host')

It could be. but it was not the one with Tia Carreia in it I know that for sure. This one shows planet earth being bombarded by first some really neat auroa bureillous(sp) aka nothern lights. then it grows increasing intense. followed by the sun eventually eating the planet up. Not a really neat thing to go through. I think it was on the discovery channel? or the Science Discovery Channel?
