TL;DR

A massive star explosion from the T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) star, located 3,000 light-years away, is expected to light up the night sky for the first time since 1946. This once-in-a-lifetime event, visible to the naked eye, could occur anytime between now and September 2024. The explosion, caused by a binary system of a red giant and a white dwarf, will make the star as bright as the North Star and will be closely observed by NASA using the James Webb Telescope.
