Sometime between May and September, a white dwarf is expected to go thermonuclear.
You're viewing a single thread.
Sometime between now and September, if you look to the left-hand side of the Northern Crown, what will look like a new star will shine for five days or so.
Pretty cool if you own a telescope and are into astronomy, but not exactly solar flare levels of hype here. Don't wake up your SO and drag them out onto the lawn at 2am to show them this Nova.
Alternately do, and witness a cosmic event together.
Idk you do you
went outside for 15 minutes. no lights. eh. I just try to wrap my head around the scale of space. should invest in some automatic scope. they have ones you set on the roof and observe from the desktop. few thousand $$ installed
My entry point was 10x50 binoculars. There's a lot of faint fuzzy white blobs out there to see with them.
