Astronomers and Supernova Distance
HOW HAPPY ASTRONOMERS ARE HOW FAR AWAY THE NEW SUPERNOVA IS
A hand-drawn graph shows astronomers’ happiness rising sharply when a new supernova is nearby, then gradually declining as the supernova is farther away. The joke is that astronomers are happiest when they discover a spectacular cosmic event close enough to study, while the situation also implies that a nearby supernova could be dangerous. This is used as a humorous reaction to excitement about rare scientific discoveries.
