Hint: Aluminium is the right choice.

IUPAC states that both Aluminum and Aluminium are acceptable, thus, I'm going with Smaointinium.

Proper aluminium won over Smaointium.

Just.

Sorry Emma, I had to pick Aluminum.

I can't spell well, but I CAN spell aluminum.

Noah Webster decided to put it in his dictionary as Aluminum. We don't know why. Mr. Webster was a bit odd.

But he did get rid of all sorts of extraneous vowels that the dirty Normans forced on the English language, so Whatever he says is fine by me.

Stellar fusion in its final stages.

Smaointium is an element, silly!

So, is Smaointe a white dwarf, a red giant, or a black hole?

Nah. Just a standard yellow, like our sun. Slightly blueshifted, though.

So she's headed for us?

Yay!

Post by **Blaze** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:48 am

Yeapers!

Good to find somebody else that understand blueshifting.

And the reason she's headed for us, of course, is continental drift. Yes, she's a star on a planet. Deal with it.
