Are you sure showing a live birth is ok for the board?

And the question I like to think of when I see stuff like this: How long ago was that star actually born?

Ahhh crap, I missed the listing of the light years when I read it. Still, its interesting to think that what we're seeing is completely different than what that star actually looks like right now. I wonder if it actually is a regular star at this point. I have no idea how long that process is supposed to take.
