Description
This is Deneb. It is the 19th brightest star in the night sky, "if you can count 19 stars under the light pollution". It is a blue-white supergiant with a magnitude of 1.25. Anyhow....Did you know that all of the gold found on earth was formed in a star that exploded and made its way to earth? I did not know that until watching a show the other night. That is cool. I think. google it!

Great picture :D I used to love star gazing, sadly between light polution and living in a place which gets so few clear sky nights I rarely get to do it anymore Whats even cooler than the gold fact is that every element in our bodies was also created by an exploding star, so that in essence means everyone on Earth was at somepoint a star, maybe thats why we like looking at them so much.
