Wow...

ok so for those unfamilar with fractals, they are basically objects where
when you look closely, the object is really made up of smaller versions of
itself.  and if you look at those smaller objects, they are made up of
smaller versions of thsemselves (continued into infinity).

Anyways. i'm watching this show on tv about the sun and they say there is
something called the heliosphere which encompases our solar system and
protects it from intersteller radiation which apparently is much worse than
local radiation.

Sounds kinda like an ozone layer for the solar system right?

Well they are saying that they've been measuring it and the heliosphere is
shrinking, so like, we are potentially in danger :P
