This happened 21 years ago and just finding out about it. We could all be dead now and not know it yet

Wouldn’t this be 21 million years ago?

Shoot I don’t know. 21 million is a lot of years

We'd all be dead if it was only 21 light years away.

Educate me here. The year on Earth was 2002 when star went super nova... right?

I think this is missing a few zeros.

It took 21 years for the light to travel at light speed to get here. Hence 21 light years.

21 light-years from Earth
I think this is missing a few zeros.
Speed of light = 186,282 miles per second = 11,176,920 miles per minute = 670,615,200 miles per hour = 16,765,380,000 miles per day = 6,119,363,700,000 miles per year x 4.24 light years = 25,946,102,088,000 miles

This star is in a different Galaxy
It is not 21 light years away. It’s supposed to say 21 million.

If light from the sun takes 9 minutes to get to earth (93 million miles), that's about 10 million miles per minute.
525600 minutes/year x 10 million miles x 21 years = 110,376,000,000,000 miles
21 million light years like some kind of bazillion number or some shite
