Captain Arthur Phillip was initially on the HMS Sirius, which was the leading ship of the First Fleet. In November 1787, a month after leaving the Cape of Good Hope, he transferred to the HMS Supply, leaving the Sirius under his second-in-command, Captain John Hunter.The Supply was a smaller and faster ship, so as the Fleet rounded Van Diemen's Land, Phillip forged ahead to form an advance party with the Alexander, Scarborough and Friendship.

Sirius's fate might be peaceful; just ejecting it's outer red giant layers to make a planetary nebula. It is 2.02 times the mass of the Sun. However, Sirius has a white dwarf companion. On Sirius B's death, Sirius A might have formed. At the other end, Sirius B might destroy Sirius A. White dwarfs have very strong gravity, and if it is close enough, Sirius B might steal material from Sirius A. When a white dwarf stealing mass from the parent star has enough mass to create iron, the iron triggers a Type 1a supernova. If this happens to Sirius B, Sirius A could either be destroyed by the immense force of the explosion, or become a runaway star, travelling faster than even Barnard's Star. If this is the case, Sirius A might eat smaller stars or crash and burn into a larger star. If it heads towards us if this happens, we would be doomed.
