A Black Swan Event describes an occurence that is extremely unlikely but carries massive impacts

The phrase comes from the Romans. They never saw one

But in 1697 Dutch explorers found some. They live in Australia

Maybe we should rename it a Green Star Event

A green star is impossible

Because of the way black body radiation and temperature work in tandem: the color green never shows

So...

Ah, fuck
