HI STAR FRIENDS! Y’ALL SLID INTO 
OUR DMS TO ASK, SO HERE I AM:

LET’S TALK ABOUT A 
NEW EXPLODING STAR!

3
00:00:09,266 --> 00:00:13,233
T. CORONAE BOREALIS, AKA THE 
BLAZE STAR EXPLODES ABOUT EVERY 
EIGHTY YEARS,

4
00:00:13,233 --> 00:00:16,500
AND IT’S DUE! NO 
ONE KNOWS EXACTLY,

5
00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:20,666
BUT AT SOME POINT SOON WE’LL ALL 
SEE NOVA IN THE SKY   HERE’S 
WHERE YOU SHOULD LOOK

6
00:00:20,666 --> 00:00:25,366

00:00:25,366 --> 00:00:30,533

KEYSTONE OF HERCULES, HERE. 
CORONA BOREALIS IS IN-BETWEEN! 
AT SOME

8
00:00:30,533 --> 00:00:36,400
POINT BY SEPTEMBER 2024   BLAZE 
SHOULD EXPLODE, BECOMING ABOUT 
AS BRIGHT AS THE NORTH STAR!

9
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:41,300
BLAZE IS A WHITE DWARF ORBITING 
AN UNSTABLE RED GIANT THAT 
EJECTS HOT MATTER OFF ITS

10
00:00:41,300 --> 00:00:44,600
SURFACE. THE WHITE DWARF PICKS 
UP THE MATTER BUT EVENTUALLY 
CAN’T TAKE ANY MORE AND 
EXPLODES

00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,166
SO RELATABLE!   THIS RECURRING 
NOVA IS ONE OF FIVE IN OUR 
GALAXY,
