Some star got into contact with some exotic matter which we will call "hypermatter", it started to grow larger and larger until it swallowed nearby stars. Its mass at this point is already greater than the entire universe (some 10^55 kilograms) and it will soon swallow its entire host galaxy. Every celestial object in the universe starts to feel the gravitational pull from the star, and lesser stars dip into into the hyperstar at nearly the speed of light and are then quickly devoured by enormous tidal forces. Unknown wavelegnths of radiation start to emanate from the star, making its colours vastly different from those of other stars.
(Remember, it takes one hundred thousand years to swallow its host galaxy, and a few billion years to destroy the rest of the universe, so this story isn't realistic at all, just for the drama).

This image is really high rez, 9216 time 6144 pixels. Huge prints could be made available, but I can't see myself bothering submitting the 45 meg jaypeg file at this point due to devArts slow upload, as it takes more than a minute to upload this low resolution copy. This image was more of a quickie, only a few hours went into it as I had all the stuff lying on my hard drive.

That is SO AWESOME...
I'm thinking about writing a story involving hyperstars... does something like that seriously exist?
Reply
:iconnuukeer:
Haha thanks. No, something like that certainly doesn't exist (in our universe at least), but there are infinitely many other universes where that might exist ;)

Yayz, other Universes...

Wait, but how do we know that the hypermatter that collided with the star didn't drop out of another Universe? ;)

It probably actually did ;) Or it was some really weird particle like a strangelet or uber-myon or something.

Maybe... cool!

Uhh... I know strangelets (sort of), but what's an uber-myon?

Just something I made up :D

:laughing: Do you write sci-fi stories? You'd be great.
