According to NASA, a supernova is about to explode in the sky. But what will actually flare up

blogs.nasa.gov: Accordingto NASA forecasts, a star system located at a distance of 3,000 light years from Earth will soon become visible to the naked eye. This could be a unique opportunity to observe, since a nova explosion occurs approximately every 80 years.

T Coronae Borealis, or T CrB, last exploded in 1946, and astronomers believe it will do so again between February and September 2024 .

A star system normally at magnitude +10, too dim to be seen with the naked eye, will jump to magnitude +2 during this event. It will be as bright as the North Star.

Once its brightness reaches its peak, T Coronae Borealis will be visible to the naked eye for a few days and just over a week through binoculars before it dims again, perhaps for another 80 years.

This recurring nova is just one of five in our galaxy. This is because T CrB is a binary system with a white dwarf and a red giant. The stars are close enough that when a red giant becomes unstable due to increasing temperature and pressure, it begins to eject its outer layers, and the white dwarf collects this material on its surface. The white dwarf’s shallow, dense atmosphere eventually heats up enough to cause a runaway thermonuclear reaction that forms the new star we see from Earth.

A red giant and a white dwarf orbit each other in this animation. A red giant is a large sphere of red, orange and white, the side of which faces the white dwarf in the lightest shades. The white dwarf is hidden in a brilliant glow of white and yellow, which is an accretion disk around the star. A stream of material, shown as a diffuse red cloud, flows from the red giant to the white dwarf, which eventually explodes.

The Big The One Editor’s Comment: NASA’s ability to consider such details, and even in 1946, is simply amazing. Modern telescopes cannot even clearly see the rings of Saturn, but here it is 3000 light years away. But as it is written, so it is written. And between the lines the following is written there.

It says between the lines that from February to September something will definitely boom in the sky. It will boom very loudly: all countries and peoples will see it, after which they will be somewhat surprised what it is. The T CrB system is a pretty good explanation for the upcoming light show. Then NASA will say, of course, that the adherents miscalculated somewhat with the brightness, the explosion was stronger than expected, but we warned you anyway, we’re great!

What exactly is going off? Is this somehow connected with the flurry of gamma-ray bursts that just began in February? This is not clear yet, but we are monitoring developments.
