Description
About 430 light- years from Earth in the star system called Polaris by humans there was a milestone in the life of a giant star...
This strip is a reply to Stellar Savants#5: Resurrection
Someone said that all is star dust in this Universe. And this star dust can travel across the cold space, nebulaes, is hitched by the gravity fields of other stars and black holes or disappear in worm holes and travel thousand of light-years distances in a matter of minutes.
The main essences of the stars can make great changes in this Universe: forming new galaxies, fertilising or destroying other stars and planets or make things that can described by only one human word: wonders.
Hungarian:
Körülbelül 430 fényévnyire a Földtől az emberek által Polarisnak nevezett csillagrendszerben egy mérföldkő jött el egy óriás csillag életében...
Valaki azt mondta, hogy minden csak csillagpor ebben az Univerzumban. És ez a csillagpor átutazhat a hideg űrön, nebulákon, befoghatják a csillagok és fekete lyukak gravitációs mezői vagy eltűnhetnek féreg lyukakban és ezer fényévnyi távolságokat utazhatnak percek alatt.
A csillagok eszenciája nagy változások képes véghez vinni ebben az univerzumban: új galaxisokat alkothatnak, megtermékenyíthetnek, vagy megsemmisítithetnek bolygókat és más csillagokat, vagy olyan dolgokat vihetnek véghez amire csak egyetlen emberi szó létezik: csoda.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
I am alpha in this month, thank you all my friend.I shared a very special blue, that can be masked very accurately. I used that in this strip too.

EXPLANATIONS:
Star trail:
A time-lapse movie can capture the sky moving as a series of photos, but capturing this movement in a single picture is called a "star trails" photo.
Since the Earth rotates, the stars are not at fixed places in the sky but appear to move, more or less towards the west. To photograph the tracks the stars make across the sky, all you need is a camera that remains fixed to ground and have it expose for an appreciable amount of time. Such photos can be quite artistic.
The stars appear to rotate around both the north and south poles in the sky, of which you generally only see one. Stars very near the pole are almost stationary in the sky, while stars closer to the equatorial plane move quite fast.

Polaris: Also known as North star, lies nearly in a direct line with the axis of the Earth's rotation "above" the North Pole — the north celestial pole — Polaris stands almost motionless on the sky, and all the stars of the Northern sky appear to rotate around it. Therefore, it makes an excellent fixed point from which to draw measurements for celestial navigation and for astrometry.
