Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Are there stars in our sky which are less than 100 yo?
Well, im not an astrologist, so I only know what I know from like.. middle school class trips, but there are stars being born all the time im pretty sure :3
Are they observable in our sky at a 100 years old? Probably not :3 space is massive so light takes a while to get here at that distance
It's all relative in space ๐ . But I could reformulate my question: are visible today in our night sky stars that weren't visible less than 100 years ago?

Not exactly the question, but while looking into it I found this :3 a star visible once every 80 years
