Nova Scotia Route 203
Route 203 is a collector road in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. It is located in Shelburne and Yarmouth Counties and runs through a sparsely populated area including Argyle Municipality from Shelburne at Trunk 3 along the border of the Tobeatic Wilderness Area through Kemptville and connects to Nova Scotia Route 340 at Carleton. The village of East Kemptville is the only part of a municipality in Nova Scotia disconnected from the rest of the district by roads, and accessible only from other districts via Highway 203. Route 203 is considered the loneliest road in the province because it has the longest uninhabited stretch of any paved highway in Nova Scotia.https://web.archive.org/web/20120301185934/http://www.nsexplore.ca/places/yarmouth-county/flintstone-rock/ Route 203: Loneliest highway in the province Communities * Carleton * Kemptville * East Kemptville * Sluice Point * Flintstone Rock * Welshtown * Upper Ohio * Middle Ohio * Lower Ohio * Shelburne Parks & ...

A nova (plural novae or novas) is a transient astronomical event that causes the sudden appearance of a bright, apparently "new" star (hence the name "nova", which is Latin for "new") that slowly fades over weeks or months. Causes of the dramatic appearance of a nova vary, depending on the circumstances of the two progenitor stars. All observed novae involve white dwarfs in close binary star, binary systems. The main sub-classes of novae are classical novae, recurrent novae (RNe), and dwarf novae. They are all considered to be cataclysmic variable stars. Classical nova eruptions are the most common type. They are likely created in a close binary star system consisting of a white dwarf and either a main sequence, subgiant, or red giant star. When the orbital period falls in the range of several days to one day, the white dwarf is close enough to its companion star to start drawing accretion (astrophysics), accreted matter onto the surface of the white dwarf, which creates a dense ...
