"Imminent Celestial Explosion to Create Spectacular 'New' Star Visible from Earth"

TL;DR Summary
Astronomers at Nottingham Trent University predict that Earth is about to witness a 'once-in-a-lifetime' space explosion caused by two stars in the T Coronae Borealis system, which will be visible to the naked eye for days. This celestial event, known as a nova, occurs approximately every 80 years and is expected to increase the system's brightness from 11mag to 2mag, making it easily visible even in light-polluted skies. The event is anticipated to happen between now and September, offering a rare opportunity for stargazers to observe the brightening in the Corona Borealis constellation.
