A star will explode on Thursday. Here’s how you can see the once-in-a-lifetime celestial event happening after 80 years

a faint star in the Northern Crown constellation, is expected to explode in a nova this week, an event that occurs approximately every 80 years, researchers have said. This explosion will make the star visible to the naked eye for the first time since 1946, providing a rare celestial sight.

T Coronae Borealis explosion: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Phenomenon
T CrB is a binary star system that brightens significantly at regular intervals. Astronomer Franck Marchis from the SETI Institute and Unistellar co-founder stated in an email that “detailed observations of the star have revealed variations that suggest the imminent arrival of this long-awaited explosion.” However, he also noted, “As the study is still theoretical, its conclusions remain uncertain,” as reported by Forbes.

Understanding T Coronae Borealis
Located in the Northern Crown constellation, about 3,000 light-years away, T CrB consists of two stars: a red giant and a white dwarf. The red giant is expanding and ejecting material as it ages, while the white dwarf, having exhausted its fuel, is cooling. Over time, the white dwarf accumulates material from the red giant, leading to a thermonuclear explosion. This explosion causes a sudden and dramatic increase in brightness, making the normally faint star visible from Earth.

T Coronae Borealis Blast: Expected Visibility and Historical Records
According to empirical data, the nova is predicted to explode on March 27 and will be visible to the naked eye for a few nights. It is expected to reach a brightness comparable to the North Star, ranking as the 48th brightest star in the night sky. The American Association of Variable Star Observers recorded a decrease in brightness in March and April 2023 and had predicted a nova event in April 2024, which did not happen.
