Johnny Appleseed has a long journey…
Looks much like a comet. Well it’s not, in fact this is a star called Mira (meaning ‘wonderful’). Mira is shedding matter across space at a whopping 468,319.104 kph. This tail stretches some 13 light years or 122,986,869,000,000 kilometers. What is so mind boggling idea is how long it would take travel that. Now thing the Apollo missions the command module and the lander hurled to the moon around 6,437.376 kph. Thats 2,186,941 Years or 79525.127273 Generations. So if you want your great^79524 grandchild to see it in person.
