Bright Star Coming
Apparently, sometime in the not-too-distant future, a white dwarf star is going to swallow its normal-star partner. The resulting nova will be the brightest on record - brighter than Sirius, possibly even outshining Venus.
The event is predicted to occur in 2083 +/- 15 years. It's unlikely I'll live to see it, but some of you might.
Here's the story.
