In 2083, there will be a big explosion and a new star will appear in the sky?

Information from Phys.org says that in 2083 a new star will appear in the sky. This prediction was made by American astrophysicist Bradley Shaefer and his colleagues from the University of Louisiana.

According to them, the object in question is the double V-shaped Sagittae from the constellation Archer (Sagittarius), located next to the constellation Swan (Cygnus) in the Northern Hemisphere. This double star is formed by a normal star and a white dwarf nearly four times smaller than it, but has a very strong gravitational force and gradually "swallows" the larger companion star, that is, suck matter. its on its side.

This event will be visible to Earth inhabitants after more than 60 years.

This terrifying sight has been observed by astronomers using telescopes since the late nineteenth century. They found that the system of constellations over time became brighter and lit up a number of times in a short period of time.

According to the researchers' prediction, this unequal battle result will end with the complete fusion of two stars as one after a major explosion.

This event will be visible to Earth inhabitants after more than 60 years. Astronomers call it a supernova explosion. This should not be confused with a supernova explosion - this is also a star formation explosion, but not because the two stars merged into one, but because the 'old' star shed its outer shell.

The scientists stressed that they could not specify the exact date of the explosion. They can only define the period from 2067 to 2099. According to them it is very likely that this phenomenon will occur in 2083.

It should be noted that the "new star" can be observed within a month. Shaefer firmly believes it will be "extremely impressive". According to him, this will be one of the brightest 'new' stars in the entire history of astronomical observations.
