What has the most recent observations and research uncovered about The Great Attractor, that spot in the universe where most observable galaxies seemed to be heading?

Are you referring, perchance, to the thoroughly debunked "Iron Sun" idea (Dr Manuel, Michael Mozina)?harry wrote:Hello All
Most elements from Hydrogen to Iron, nickel,silicon are made from fusion within the solar envelope.
The extra ordinary energy expelled during a supernova produces the heavy elements that are allowed to remain in their atomic state away from a star solar envelope which ususally breaks down elements larger than Iron.
Yes 100%. We are here to discuss issues. But never close doors on ideas, that some people think are wild.If so, would you be prepared to defend this idea, in terms of its internal consistency and consistency with good observational and experimental results
That is strange Harry because that is exactly what O Manuel claims in his paperAs for the iron star. Our sun has not been dominated by Iron.
Sounds pretty iron dominated to me, if you look at the plots, which are logged, you see that Manuel is in fact claiming that the sun has 1000 times as much Iron as hydrogen. Although this depends on what he actually means by abundance, still, he is saying the Sun has more Iron than Hydrogen.The Sun formed on the collapsed core of a supernova (Fig. 2) and consists mostly of elements (See right side Fig. 7) produced in the SN interior - Fe, O, Ni, Si, and S
Re Manuel and Mozina ("Sun has a solid iron surface"), I've already posted some opinions (you may need to read the threads in my post to get an appreciation of my opinion), in the Inner Core of our Sun thread.harry wrote:Hello Neried
Mate what is your opinion?
Others give their opinions.
As for the iron star. Our sun has not been dominated by Iron.

Where did you hear that Prof Manuel has been thoroughly debunked with respect to the Iron sun. If you have info please forward them to me or respond here.
I have an open mind. All doors open and none closed.
