101 Reasons for a Young Earth SERIES: 88

Q: Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?
declare, if thou hast understanding.
A: For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
 being understood by the things that are made, .....so that they are without excuse:
Job 38:4/Romans 1:20
"The observed rapid rate of change in stars contradicts the vast ages assigned to stellar evolution. For example, Sakurai’s Object in Sagittarius: in 1994, this star was most likely a white dwarf in the centre of a planetary nebula; by 1997 it had grown to a bright yellow giant, about 80 times wider than the sun (Astronomy & Astrophysics 321:L17, 1997). In 1998, it had expanded even further, to a red supergiant 150 times wider than the sun. But then it shrank just as quickly; by 2002 the star itself was invisible even to the most powerful optical telescopes, although it is detectable in the infrared, which shines through the dust (Muir, H., 2003, Back from the dead, New Scientist 177."
